Parker XV520P-8 Ball Valve 1/2 Inch Fnpt Brass 650 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER XV520P-8 is a standard manual ball valve designed for 1/2 inch pipe connections in fluid control applications. The two-piece brass body provides reliable shutoff performance, while the lever handle allows for quick quarter-turn operation. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 650 psi, this valve is built for demanding service in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. The reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seat and seal materials resist chemical degradation and maintain a consistent shutoff under pressure. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this valve as an inline isolation point in both gas and liquid service lines.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, reliable inline shutoff is required. The FNPT x FNPT end connections make it compatible with standard threaded pipe installations. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, refrigerant circuit accessories, compressed air systems, and other fluid piping systems where manual isolation is needed. The 1/2 inch pipe size fits a wide range of common branch and supply configurations encountered in everyday trade work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IPC requirements for shutoff valves. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line completely before installing or servicing this valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before making up the connection, and do not overtighten, as this is a brass-bodied fitting. Confirm flow direction and handle orientation before returning the system to service.
