Sharkbite 25560LF Washing Machine Angle Valve 1/2x3/4 in

Product Description

The SHARKBITE CASH ACME 25560LF is a brass push-to-connect washing machine angle valve sized at 1/2 inches inlet by 3/4 inches outlet. It controls the water supply line to residential washing machines and reduces flooding risk caused by burst supply hoses. The push-to-connect end accepts copper, CPVC, or PEX pipe with no soldering, clamps, unions, or glue required. Stainless-steel teeth grip the pipe on insertion while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to form a watertight seal. Drop ear mounting tabs provide wall stability. Licensed plumbers install this valve during new appliance hookups or supply line replacements.

This valve is designed for residential laundry room installations where a washing machine connects to a standard household water supply. The 1/2 inches push-to-connect inlet fits directly onto copper, CPVC, or PEX supply piping. The 3/4 inches outlet accommodates standard washing machine hose connections. The valve can be rotated after assembly, which simplifies installation in confined spaces behind or beside the appliance. The drop ear tabs allow secure wall mounting for a clean, stable installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before removing any existing valve or fitting. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before inserting into the push-to-connect fitting. Reference local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for approved materials and approved valve types in laundry supply applications.
