Parker LFPP6VME2 Male Elbow Ball Valve 1/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER LFPP6VME2 is a male elbow, bi-directional manual ball valve designed for 1/8-inch pipe connections. It features a full-port design with an MNPT x Push-To-Connect end configuration, allowing flow in either direction without restriction. The polypropylene body keeps weight low at approximately 0.19 pounds and resists chemical exposure common in fluid-handling systems. The wedge-style handle provides positive on/off control. EPDM seals deliver reliable seating performance across typical service conditions. This valve is suited for plumbing and fluid distribution applications where a compact elbow-style shutoff is required.

This valve is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and fluid-handling systems where a 1/8-inch full-port shutoff with an elbow orientation is needed. The MNPT x Push-To-Connect configuration simplifies installation by eliminating the need for additional fittings on the push-connect side, making it a practical choice for potable water, food-service fluid lines, and similar low-pressure distribution systems that require NSF and FDA compliance.

Key Features

• Full-port ball valve design minimizes pressure drop across the valve
• Bi-directional flow — no dedicated inlet or outlet orientation required
• MNPT x Push-To-Connect end connection for fast, tool-free assembly on one side
• Polypropylene body for corrosion resistance and lightweight construction
• EPDM seals rated for compatibility with water and many fluid media
• Meets FDA, NSF-51, and NSF-61 standards for potable water and food-contact applications

Compatibility

Designed for 1/8-inch pipe systems using MNPT x Push-To-Connect fittings with a 3/8-inch tube outside diameter. Suitable for potable water and food-service fluid lines compliant with FDA, NSF-51, and NSF-61 requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified fluid-systems technician. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before installing or servicing this valve. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the MNPT connection per local plumbing code requirements; do not overtighten the threaded connection into the polypropylene body. Verify push-to-connect tubing is cut square and fully seated before restoring system pressure.
