Sharkbite 24735LF Ball Valve 1/2 in Push-to-connect

Product Description

The SHARKBITE 24735LF is a standard manual ball valve designed for 1/2-inch push-to-connect plumbing systems. Built with a full brass body, brass trim, and brass seat, this valve provides reliable shutoff for potable water lines without requiring soldering, threading, or special tools. The push-to-connect fittings on both ends allow for fast, tool-free installation in tight spaces. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 psi and a maximum working temperature of 200 degrees F, making it well-suited for residential and light commercial domestic water distribution. The PTFE seal material ensures a leak-free seat over repeated cycles.

This valve is intended for use in potable water applications including domestic hot and cold supply lines, fixture shutoffs, and general plumbing distribution. Its push-to-connect end connections on both inlet and outlet allow licensed plumbers and experienced trade installers to make quick connections to compatible copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing without soldering or crimping. The compact form factor — 6.1 inches in length and 1.13 inches in height — fits within standard wall cavities and utility spaces.
