Sharkbite/cash Acme COMPA1214Z Brass Ball Angle Valve

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME COMPA1214Z is a quarter-turn, full-port brass ball angle valve with a 1/2-inch compression inlet and a 1/4-inch OD compression outlet. It is designed to control water supply in residential plumbing applications where a reliable shutoff is required. The compression-style connections on both ends secure to the supply pipe using a compression nut and ferrule, eliminating the need for soldering. The full-port ball design allows unrestricted flow when open and provides a complete shutoff with a single 90-degree handle turn. Licensed plumbers and skilled trades professionals install this valve during new construction, fixture replacement, and appliance hookup work.

This angle valve is used in residential plumbing to supply water to ice makers, toilets, and faucets. The 1/2-inch compression inlet connects directly to copper supply piping. The 1/4-inch OD compression outlet accepts a standard supply line for the downstream fixture. Its angle-body configuration suits tight under-sink and behind-toilet installations where an inline valve would not fit. The quarter-turn handle operation makes seasonal or emergency shutoffs straightforward without tools.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code. Shut off the main water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the copper pipe before seating the valve body, then tighten the compression nut with an adjustable wrench — do not overtighten. Connect the fixture supply line to the 1/4-inch outlet compression fitting and verify no leaks under system pressure before returning the valve to service.
