SharkBite Max push-to-connect ball valves are the fastest and easiest way to install a new or replacement water shut-off valve. A newly designed stainless steel collet retainer delivers additional strength and durability and provides a 400 psi pressure rating. SharkBite Max fittings and valves do not require a PEX tube liner and a re-engineered body allows you to insert the pipe using less force and greater ease. The single lever quarter turn handle allows for quick control over water flow, especially in tight spaces. No soldering, clamps, unions, glue or special tools required. After inserting the pipe, stainless steel teeth bite down and grip the pipe tightly while a specially formulated O-ring compresses around the pipe to create a watertight seal. The valve can be rotated after installation for quick adjustments and removing the valve is just as fast with a disconnect tool, allowing them to be changed or reused. Compatible with PEX, copper, CPVC PE-RT, or HDPE pipe Requires no special tools to install on hot or cold-water lines Can be installed on wet or dry lines pressure tested immediately Rated to 200 degrees F and 400 psi Rotatable after installation and removable PEX tube liner not required after installation and removable Approved for underground and behind-the-wall applications with no access panels (wrapping required when burying underground) Low-lead DZR corrosion-resistant brass body Code approved, IAPMO listed Series Name: Max Inlet Diameter: 1/2-in Inlet Size in Inches: 1/2-in Outlet Diameter: 1/2-in Application: Potable Water Drain/Vent: No Inlet Thread Type: Push-to-connect Material: Brass Maximum Pressure: 400 PSI Outlet Thread Type: Push-to-connect Package Quantity: 1 Warranty: 25-year limited Compatible Pipe Material: Multi-Purpose CA Residents: Prop 65 Warning(s): Yes Complies with Federal Lead Guidelines: Yes UNSPSC: 40141600
