- The NIBCO® Press System® bronze ball valve body is manufactured from dezincification resistant bronze, with a bronze blow-out proof stem. With the full port design and brass ball, the ball valve allows maximum flow and minimum pressure drop or turbulence with unobstructed bi-directional flow. The ball valve is designed with press-to-connect end connections with an inboard bead and EPDM O-ring for quick and easy joinery to the piping system. Properly applying pressure from a press-fit tool tightens the O-ring onto the tube, ensuring a clean, permanent, watertight seal in seconds, with no flame, solder or flux. This ball valve features a new design that allows a leak to occur during testing if the press connection is not properly crimped. The NIBCO® Press System® is user friendly, quick and easy to install. When properly crimped a unique N witness mark is clearly visible. The 2-Piece valve is recommended for many applications, including HVAC, hot and cold potable water and non-potable process water. The lever handle provides convenient quarter-turn operation and bubble-tight shut-off. Please refer to NIBCO® technical data sheets and catalogs for engineering and installation information.
