Sharkbite/cash Acme 24813A Pex Washing Machine Valve

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 24813A is a PEX washing machine valve designed for cold water inlet connections in residential laundry applications. It features a 1/2 inch PEX barb fitting on the supply side and a 3/4 inch male NPT (MNPT) outlet for direct connection to a standard washing machine supply port. The blue handle provides a clear visual indicator for cold water service. Rated to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F, this valve is built to handle the pressure and temperature demands of residential plumbing systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this valve as a dedicated shutoff point on PEX supply lines serving washing machines.

This valve is intended for use on PEX tubing supply lines feeding residential washing machines. The 1/2 inch PEX barb inlet connects directly to 1/2 inch PEX pipe, while the 3/4 inch MNPT outlet threads into the washing machine inlet connection. It is suited for new construction, remodel work, or replacement of existing washing machine stop valves where PEX supply lines are already run. The cold-only blue handle designation makes it straightforward to identify the correct valve during rough-in or service calls. This product ships in a package quantity of six units, making it practical for multi-unit residential or commercial laundry installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply to the line before cutting into existing PEX pipe or removing an old valve. Use an appropriately sized PEX crimp or clamp tool to secure the barb fitting; do not substitute push-fit connection methods on barb-style fittings. Verify all connections are fully seated and pressure-tested before restoring service.
