Sharkbite 24736LF 3/4 Inch Ball Valve Push-to-connect Brass

Product Description

The SHARKBITE 24736LF is a standard manual ball valve designed for 3/4 inch push-to-connect plumbing installations. The valve body and trim are constructed from lead-free brass, with a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) seal and brass seat that deliver reliable shutoff performance. It handles a maximum working pressure of 200 psi and a maximum working temperature of 200 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of residential and light commercial water service applications. Licensed plumbers and water service technicians install this valve where a durable, code-compliant quarter-turn shutoff is required on copper, CPVC, or PEX lines within the accepted push-to-connect size range.

This valve is intended for potable water applications and is rated lead-free in compliance with applicable federal and state standards. Its push-to-connect end connections on both inlet and outlet allow for fast, tool-free installation without soldering, threading, or crimping. The standard port design provides consistent flow characteristics across the 3/4 inch line size. It is well-suited for service valves on water heaters, fixture supply lines, irrigation zone controls, and other shutoff points where frequent access is anticipated.
