Parker LFPP4VAS8 Angle Stop Ball Valve 3/8 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The PARKER LFPP4VAS8 is a full-port, angle stop bi-directional manual ball valve designed for plumbing and fluid-handling applications where flow control at a branch or shutoff point is required. The valve features a polypropylene body with EPDM seals, making it suitable for potable water systems that demand NSF-61 and NSF-51 compliance. Connections are Push-to-Connect on one end with male NPT (MNPT) and female NPT (FNPT) on the remaining ports, giving installers flexible termination options. The wedge-style handle provides a positive open/close indication and is sized for quick manual actuation without tools. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the typical installers for this valve in commercial and residential water distribution lines.

This valve is suited for potable water supply systems, under-sink shutoff applications, filtration skids, and light commercial plumbing installations where an angle-stop configuration is needed. The full-port design minimizes pressure drop across the valve body, which is important in low-flow or pressure-sensitive water treatment and filtration circuits. The bi-directional rating allows installation without concern for flow direction, reducing field errors during rough-in work. Its compact body dimensions of 3 inches length, 2 inches width, and 5.75 inches height make it practical in tight cabinet and chase installations.

Key Features

• Full-port ball design minimizes flow restriction and pressure drop
• Bi-directional flow rated — no flow-direction orientation required during install
• Push-to-Connect x MNPT x FNPT end connections for flexible termination
• Polypropylene body for corrosion resistance in potable water service
• EPDM seals compatible with cold and ambient-temperature water systems
• NSF-51 and NSF-61 listed and FDA compliant for potable water contact

Compatibility

Designed for use in potable water plumbing systems requiring a 3/8 inch by 1/2 inch angle stop valve with Push-to-Connect, MNPT, and FNPT end connections, and compatible with 1/4 inch outside diameter tubing on the push-connect port.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making any connections. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and deburred before insertion into the Push-to-Connect fitting to maintain a leak-free seal. Verify NPT threads are wrapped with PTFE tape or pipe-thread sealant approved for potable water service before assembly.
