Nibco NL95TX6 Lead-free Bronze Ball Valve 1/2 in

Product Description

The NIBCO NL95TX6 is a lead-free bronze ball valve designed for quarter-turn operation, rotating 90 degrees from fully open to fully closed. The two-piece body construction features threaded end connections and a full-port bore, minimizing flow restriction through the valve. Built with NIBSEAL technology, this valve is suited for plumbing, mechanical, and hydronic piping systems where low lead content is required by code. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers. The lead-free bronze construction meets NSF and Safe Drinking Water Act requirements applicable to potable water service.

The NL95TX6 is intended for use in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical systems. Its threaded ends make it a direct fit for standard pipe installations where soldering is not preferred or permitted. Typical applications include domestic water supply, hydronic heating, and general mechanical service lines. The full-port design is favored where maintaining full flow capacity is a system requirement.

Key Features

• Quarter-turn (90-degree) operation for fast shutoff
• Two-piece bronze body for reliable pressure containment
• Full-port bore minimizes pressure drop across the valve
• Threaded end connections for tool-based installation without soldering
• NIBSEAL stem sealing technology reduces risk of fugitive emissions
• Lead-free construction suitable for potable water applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for 1/2 inch threaded pipe systems in residential, commercial, mechanical, and industrial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC standards. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads per standard practice before making up connections. Do not overtighten threaded joints, as this can crack the valve body or distort seat seals.
