Parker BD-MV608-8-1 Miniature Manual Ball Valve 1/2 in

Product Description

The PARKER BD-MV608-8-1 is a miniature manual ball valve designed for 1/2 inch pipe in a male x female end configuration. Built with a brass body and reinforced Teflon seat, it handles working pressures up to 450 psi and temperatures from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The wedge-style handle provides positive shut-off with a compact footprint, making it well suited for installations where space is limited. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this valve in fluid and gas service lines where a reliable inline shut-off is required.

This valve is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and fluid control applications. The 1/2 inch pipe size fits common branch and supply line configurations. Its brass body offers corrosion resistance in water, air, and many fluid service environments. The male x female end connection allows direct inline installation without additional adapters in standard threaded piping systems.
