Value Collection TXN050-T Ball Valve 1/2 in Full Port Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TXN050-T is a 1/2 inch full-port manual ball valve designed for shut-off and flow-control duties in plumbing, HVAC, and general piping systems. Built with a two-piece brass body and a T-handle actuator, this valve delivers straightforward quarter-turn operation with no tools required for actuation. The FNPT x FNPT end connections accept standard female-threaded pipe on both ends. NBR seals and a PTFE seat provide reliable resistance to common fluids encountered in residential and light commercial installations. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial applications including hydronic heating lines, domestic water supply branches, compressed-air distribution, and HVAC refrigerant-adjacent plumbing circuits where a full-port, low-restriction shut-off is required. The full-port bore minimizes pressure drop across the valve, which is important in flow-sensitive systems. The compact two-piece body fits in tight mechanical spaces and is compatible with standard 1/2 inch NPT pipe and fittings commonly found throughout the trade.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply or depressurize the line before installation or service. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe-thread compound to male NPT threads before making up the connection. Do not over-tighten threaded fittings, as brass bodies can crack under excessive torque.
