Nibco MA01128 Miniature Ball Valve 3/4 Inch Pvc

Product Description

The NIBCO MA01128 is a 1-piece miniature manual ball valve designed for 3/4 inch PVC piping systems. It features a standard port configuration with a tee handle for straightforward quarter-turn operation. The body is constructed from polyvinylchloride (PVC) and is rated for Schedule 40 installations. With a maximum working pressure of 2000 psi, this valve is built for reliable shutoff duty in low-pressure fluid handling applications. The solvent x solvent end connections allow it to be permanently bonded into PVC piping using standard solvent cement. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial systems are the primary installers of this valve.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where PVC Schedule 40 pipe is used. The solvent x solvent connection type makes it a common choice for cold water distribution lines, irrigation systems, and other non-threaded PVC assemblies where a compact inline shutoff is needed. The tee handle provides a clear open/closed visual indicator, which is useful in tight mechanical spaces or in-line installations where quick identification of valve position is important.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line completely before cutting into any existing piping. Use appropriate PVC primer and solvent cement rated for the pipe schedule and fluid service; follow the cement manufacturer's cure time before pressurizing. Refer to local plumbing codes and the IPC for approved applications and pressure ratings for PVC valves.
