Sharkbite UR24616A Brass Push-fit Ball Valve

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UR24616A is a brass push-fit ball valve designed for fast, tool-free water shutoff in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. It combines a full-port ball valve with a built-in drain port and a mounting tab for secure attachment to framing or structural surfaces. The push-fit end connection eliminates the need for soldering, crimping, or threading, making this valve a practical choice for licensed plumbers and qualified DIYers who need a reliable shutoff in tight timelines or retrofit situations. The brass body provides corrosion resistance suited to potable water service.

This valve is used in residential water supply lines where an accessible shutoff and drain point are needed in a single fitting. Typical install scenarios include isolation valves on branch lines, appliance shutoffs, and service points on copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing. The mounting tab allows the valve to be fastened to a stud or bracket, keeping it stable under normal operating conditions and preventing torque stress on the connecting pipe.

Key Features

• Push-fit connection for tool-free installation - no soldering, crimping, or threading required
• Full-port brass ball valve body for positive shutoff and corrosion resistance
• Integrated drain port allows controlled line bleed-down without additional fittings
• Mounting tab secures valve to framing or structural surface to reduce pipe stress
• Suitable for copper, CPVC, and PEX tubing applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-fit replacement or new-install ball valve for residential and light commercial potable water plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the main water supply and depressurize the line before inserting pipe ends into the push-fit connection. Pipe ends must be cut cleanly and deburred to ensure a proper seal. Use the integrated mounting tab to fasten the valve to a stud or bracket before restoring system pressure.
