Sharkbite/cash Acme 24631LF Hose Bibb 45 Degree No-kink

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 24631LF is a 45-degree, no-kink hose bibb designed for residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It accepts either a 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch push-to-connect inlet and delivers flow through a 3/4-inch male hose thread (MHT) outlet. The 45-degree angle between inlet and outlet keeps the connected hose running parallel to the wall, eliminating the sharp bend that causes kinking. The body is forged for structural strength and includes an integrated mounting flange for secure attachment to framing or a mounting surface. Quarter-turn and multi-turn operation both enable precise regulation of water flow. This valve is installed by licensed plumbers and experienced service technicians.

This hose bibb fits typical exterior wall and utility room installations where a garden hose or equipment supply line connects to a building water supply. The push-to-connect inlet is compatible with copper, PEX, CPVC, and PE-RT pipe, making it adaptable to most residential piping systems without soldering or crimping. The integrated mounting flange eliminates the need for a separate escutcheon or backing plate, keeping the installation clean and secure. It is sold in a package quantity of 6 units, making it suitable for multi-unit or tract-home applications where consistent spec is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the building water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into the existing pipe. Ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred before inserting into the push-to-connect fitting to achieve a proper seal. Secure the mounting flange to framing or a solid backing surface before pressurizing the line.
