It features a 5\/8 inch flare inlet and a 3\/4 inch female iron pipe (FIP) outlet. Built from solid brass, the valve provides a strong, durable connection rated for use with liquified petroleum gas, LP gas, and air mixtures at pressures up to 175 psi. This valve is suitable for residential and light commercial gas piping applications and is typically installed by licensed plumbers or gas fitters working on LP gas distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is used in inline gas piping runs where a 5\/8 inch flare connection meets a 3\/4 inch FIP threaded fitting. Common applications include LP gas supply lines for appliances, generators, and heating equipment. The straight configuration keeps the piping run direct without a directional change, simplifying installation in tight or linear plumbing layouts. It is sold in a bag package with a quantity of 6 units per package, making it practical for contractors stocking multiple valves for service calls or new construction jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for durability and corrosion resistance in gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated up to 175 psi for LP gas, liquified petroleum gas, and air mixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch flare x 3\/4 inch FIP straight inline configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall valve design provides a full shutoff with a quarter-turn operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged 6 units per bag for contractor convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with liquified petroleum gas, LP gas, and air mixture systems.

Shut off the gas supply and verify zero pressure at the work area before beginning any valve installation or replacement. Ensure flare fittings are properly formed and threads are sealed with an approved gas-rated thread sealant or tape. Do not overtighten brass fittings; follow fitting manufacturer torque guidelines and leak-test all connections with an approved gas leak detection solution before restoring service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch Flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch FIP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Inline Ball Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 175 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGas Type Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: LP Gas, Liquified Petroleum Gas, Air Mixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19 pounds (package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SHARKBITE\/CASH ACME\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60005B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562610327858,"sku":"60005B","price":60.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5c0a720099fcd75a2cd8b551a51abcdf.jpg?v=1786480735","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-cash-acme-60005b-straight-brass-gas-ball-valve","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
