It ships with a hose cap and retainer attached to the valve body. The valve uses press female connections with an inboard bead and EPDM O-ring that compress onto the tube when a press-fit tool is applied, forming a watertight, permanent seal without flame, solder, or flux. The body is manufactured from a dezincification-resistant (DZR) lead-free brass alloy. Rated to 250 psi non-shock cold working pressure with a maximum service temperature of 250 degrees F, this valve suits demanding residential and light commercial plumbing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is intended for copper-to-copper press systems in residential and commercial plumbing installations. The press x hose end configuration makes it well suited for hose bib and equipment isolation points within cold and hot water distribution lines. A licensed plumber or pipefitter typically installs this valve where quick, flame-free joinery is required, such as occupied buildings or areas with fire restrictions. The included hose cap and retainer provide an immediate, ready-to-use assembly straight out of the package. This valve is not intended for gas service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free, dezincification-resistant (DZR) brass body for corrosion resistance in potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress-to-connect female x hose end connections with EPDM O-ring for flame-free, solder-free installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull port design minimizes flow restriction through the valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlowout-proof stem construction for long-term safety and reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReinforced PTFE seat rings for durable, low-torque operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress leak-detection feature allows verification of proper connection before system pressurization\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHose cap and retainer included, attached to valve at time of shipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with copper press piping systems at 3\/4 inches.

Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or servicing this valve. A compatible press-fit tool with the correct jaw size for 3\/4 inches copper is required to achieve a proper seal. Consult applicable local plumbing codes, IPC, and NSF certification requirements before installation in potable water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press female x hose end\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 psi non-shock cold working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Service Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-free dezincification-resistant (DZR) brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reinforced PTFE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eO-Ring Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: EPDM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blowout-proof\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF\/ANSI\/CAN-61, NSF\/ANSI\/CAN-372, MSS SP-145, IAPMO\/ANSI Z1157 (IGC 157)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead-Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGas Service\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not intended for gas use\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: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: nf99kh8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468197495090,"sku":"NF99KH8","price":95.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946353.jpg?v=1783914155","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-nf99kh8-3-4-in-lead-free-brass-ball-valve-press-x-hose","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
