Parker XV520P-16 Ball Valve 1 Inch Brass Fnpt 650 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER XV520P-16 is a 2-piece standard manual ball valve rated for 650 psi working pressure, designed for shutoff and flow control in plumbing and fluid-handling systems. The body and trim are both constructed from brass, offering solid corrosion resistance in a wide range of liquid and gas applications. The valve features a reinforced PTFE seat and seal for durable, low-friction performance across repeated cycles. A lever handle provides fast quarter-turn actuation, allowing a technician to confirm valve position at a glance. At 9.744 pounds, this is a solid, full-duty valve suited for commercial and industrial service work.

This valve is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing installations, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general fluid distribution where a reliable manual shutoff is required at a 1-inch pipe connection. The FNPT x FNPT end connections make it compatible with standard threaded pipe configurations. It is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians in both new construction and retrofit applications. The brass construction makes it well suited for water, air, and many non-aggressive fluid systems.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for 1-inch FNPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and general fluid-handling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Isolate and depressurize the pipe system fully before installing or removing the valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads of the mating pipe, not to the valve itself, and tighten to a snug fit without over-torquing the brass body. Verify for leaks at working pressure before returning the system to service.
