Brass quarter-turn valve for laundry supply
The OATEY 38965 is a brass washing machine valve with a red alloy handle that operates by quarter turn. It connects 3/4 inch CPVC pipe on both inlet and outlet sides. The transparent body lets the installer confirm flow visually. It is intended for residential or light-commercial laundry hook-ups where a positive shut-off is required.
Fits 3/4 inch CPVC lines
The valve threads directly onto 3/4 inch CPVC supply stubs without adapters. Its quarter-turn action isolates the washer from the house supply so service or replacement can proceed without draining the whole system. The brass body resists corrosion from chlorinated water. No hammer arrestor is included, so a separate device may be needed where codes require water-hammer protection.
Rated for 100 psi and 200 degrees F under
The valve withstands a maximum pressure of 100 psi and a maximum temperature of 200 degrees F during sustained hot-water fill cycles. Quarter-turn operation remains reliable after repeated cycling because the brass ball and seats wear evenly. The red handle stays cool enough to grip even when the valve passes near-boiling water. Condition: new.

Questions about this item
Will the 100 psi maximum pressure hold up under sustained household supply pressure?
The valve is rated for a maximum of 100 psi, which matches typical residential supply limits.
Does the brass body and alloy handle stay cool and quiet during all-day operation?
Brass construction and a quarter-turn design run silently with no measurable heat build-up at normal water temperatures.
My supply lines are CPVC — does the 3/4 in inlet connect directly without extra adapters?
The 3/4 inch CPVC inlet solvent-welds straight to standard CPVC pipe, so no separate adapter is needed.
