Matco-norca 772st03 Pvc Sch 80 True Union Ball Valve 1/2 in

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA 772st03 is a true union PVC Schedule 80 ball valve designed for reliable isolation and flow control in piping systems. Built from Schedule 80 PVC, it offers greater wall thickness and pressure handling than standard Schedule 40 valves, making it suitable for demanding plumbing and industrial fluid-handling applications. The true union design allows the valve body to be removed from the line for service or replacement without disturbing the adjacent piping. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters are the primary installers for this type of valve.

This valve is sized at 1/2 inch and is intended for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, chemical distribution lines, irrigation systems, and other applications where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant shutoff valve is required. Its PVC construction makes it well suited for handling water, mild acids, and other fluids compatible with PVC. It is commonly installed in exposed or concealed piping runs where metal valves would be subject to corrosion.

Key Features

• True union body design allows in-line removal without cutting pipe
• Schedule 80 PVC construction provides increased wall thickness over Schedule 40
• 1/2 inch pipe size suits common residential and light commercial applications
• Corrosion-resistant PVC material compatible with water and many mild chemical fluids
• Quarter-turn ball valve operation for fast open and close actuation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation true union ball valve for 1/2 inch PVC Schedule 80 piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off system pressure and drain the line completely before removing or installing the valve. PVC solvent cement and primer appropriate for Schedule 80 fittings should be used on socket-end connections. Avoid over-tightening union nuts by hand, as excess force can crack the PVC body.
