Built to ASTM F1960 cold expansion PEX standards, this lead-free valve carries ANSI\/NSF 14\/61 and cUPC certifications, making it suitable for potable water systems. The body, ball, and stem are all machined from C46500 brass, and the valve is rated to 400 psi. A blow-out proof stem design adds a layer of safety in high-pressure service. The unit ships with an integrated waste drain port and a drop ear elbow, reducing the need for additional fittings on the rough-in. Licensed plumbers and PEX installers are the primary trade for this valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is engineered for cold expansion PEX-to-PEX connections and is specifically designed for use with Uponor-compatible cold expansion systems. It fits residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a reliable isolation point is needed on a 3\/4-inch PEX branch or main. The included drop ear elbow allows for wall-mount scenarios where a fixture supply needs to be anchored to framing. The waste drain port enables system blowout or seasonal draining without removing the valve from the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free C46500 brass body, ball, and stem — meets ANSI\/NSF 61 for potable water contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold expansion PEX end connections per ASTM F1960, compatible with Uponor-style expansion tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull-port ball design minimizes flow restriction through the valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlow-out proof stem construction prevents stem ejection under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated waste drain port for system blowout or winterization\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes drop ear elbow for wall-anchored supply terminations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e400 psi pressure rating with PTFE seats and EPDM O-ring seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cold expansion PEX systems using ASTM F1960 fittings, specifically noted for use with Uponor cold expansion PEX installations.

Depressurize and drain the system before cutting into an existing line. Cold expansion connections require the proper expansion tool and ring size matched to the pipe outside diameter — allow adequate expansion ring recovery time before pressurizing. Secure the drop ear elbow to framing with appropriate screws before making the supply connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX x PEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full Port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 400 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd-to-End Distance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.49 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: C46500 Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: C46500 Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: C46500 Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: PTFE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeal Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: EPDM O-Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Q235 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuation Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lever Handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\/NSF 14\/61, ASTM F1960, cUPC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead-Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MATCO-NORCA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 754pxcede04lf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468241764658,"sku":"754PXCEDE04LF","price":27.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946308.jpg?v=1783915578","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-754pxcede04lf-3-4-inch-pex-ball-valve-lead-free","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
