  • Spring-return handle closes valve automatically
  • Rated for 600 psi cold working pressure

Brass Ball Valve with Spring Return

This 1/2 inch FNPT brass ball valve features a full-port design and inline body style for unrestricted flow in residential or light-commercial plumbing. The two-piece brass body uses PTFE seats and a blowout-proof brass stem rated to 600 psi CWP across a temperature range of -40 to 400 degrees F. A steel spring-return handle automatically closes the valve when released for fail-safe operation.

Installers needing automatic shut-off

The spring-return handle suits systems that must default to the closed position when the operator lets go, such as emergency drains or safety isolation points. Buyers who require a lever that stays open without constant pressure, or who need a different pipe size or connection type, should select an alternative valve style.

Inline fit for copper or threaded pipe

The FNPT x FNPT threads connect directly to standard 1/2 inch female fittings, so the valve sits inline without extra adapters. Full-port construction maintains the same bore as the pipe, minimising pressure drop. The PTFE seats and brass stem tolerate hot water and steam up to 400 degrees F, while the 600 psi rating covers typical municipal and well-pressure systems.

Questions about this item

Does this valve need a straight run of 1/2" FNPT pipe on both sides to seal properly?

Yes, it has 1/2" FNPT x FNPT connections and an inline body style, so it threads directly between two female NPT ends.

Will the 600 psi CWP rating hold if my existing system runs at lower pressure but sees occasional spikes?

The 600 psi CWP rating covers cold working pressure, so normal spikes below that limit are within the valve's design range.

How can I confirm the spring-return handle snaps the ball fully closed after each use?

Operate the steel handle manually; the spring-return mechanism should drive it back to the closed position without sticking, showing the blowout-proof stem and PTFE seats are sealing.
