Sharkbite WMV1234Z2 Washing Machine Valve 1/2 Mip X 3/4 Mht 2-pack

Product Description

The SHARKBITE CASH ACME WMV1234Z2 is a 2-pack of chrome-plated brass quarter-turn washing machine valves designed to control hot and cold water supply lines at the washing machine connection point. Each valve features a 1/2-inch Male Iron Pipe (MIP) inlet and a 3/4-inch Male Hose Thread (MHT) outlet. The quarter-turn ball valve mechanism provides a fast, reliable shutoff with a single 90-degree handle rotation. Chrome-plated brass construction resists corrosion and stands up to the demands of residential plumbing environments. This combo pack is installed by licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers during washing machine installations or supply line upgrades.

This valve set is suited for residential laundry installations where dedicated hot and cold supply shutoffs are required at the washing machine. One valve handles the hot supply line and one handles the cold. In addition to threaded MIP connections, these valves can be sweat-soldered onto 1/2-inch nominal copper pipe, giving installers flexibility depending on the existing rough-in configuration. The pack includes two identical valves differentiated by application at install time.

Key Features

• Quarter-turn ball valve design for quick, maintenance-free shutoff
• 1/2-inch MIP inlet x 3/4-inch MHT outlet on each valve
• Compatible with sweat installation on 1/2-inch nominal copper pipe
• Chrome-plated brass construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• 2-pack supplies both hot and cold supply shutoffs in one purchase

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard residential washing machine supply lines requiring 1/2-inch MIP x 3/4-inch MHT quarter-turn shutoff valves. Also compatible with 1/2-inch nominal copper pipe via sweat connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before removing any existing valves or making new connections. When sweat-soldering onto copper, follow standard torch safety practices and ensure the pipe is clean and dry before applying flux and solder. Do not overtighten MIP threaded connections; use thread sealant tape appropriate for potable water systems.
