Lead Free Valves

Lead-free valves are essential for any application involving potable water to ensure compliance with health and safety standards. These valves are specifically manufactured using materials that contain less than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces. . This ensures that no harmful lead leaches into the water supply, making them safe for use in residential, commercial, and public drinking water systems.

Lead-Free Ball Valves
Lead-free ball valves use a spherical disc to control flow. A simple 90-degree turn of the handle opens or closes the valve, making them ideal for quick shut-off applications. They are highly durable and provide a tight seal, making them a popular choice for main water lines and shut-off points.

Lead-Free Check Valves
Lead-free check valves allow water to flow in only one direction, automatically closing to prevent backflow. They are crucial for protecting plumbing systems and equipment, such as water heaters and pumps, from damage caused by reverse flow.

Lead-Free Gate Valves
Lead-free gate valves control flow using a sliding gate or wedge. When fully open, the gate is completely withdrawn, allowing for a straight-through flow with minimal pressure drop. They are often used as isolation valves in pipelines that require full, unobstructed flow.

Lead-Free PEX Ball Valves
Lead-free PEX ball valves are designed for use with PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) tubing. They feature a crimp or clamp connection method, providing a secure and reliable joint for PEX plumbing systems. These valves are lightweight and easy to install.

Lead-Free Press Ball Valves
Lead-free press ball valves are used in copper piping systems. They utilize a specialized press tool to create a permanent, watertight seal, eliminating the need for soldering or threading. This makes installation quick and efficient.

Lead-Free Push-Fit Ball Valves
Lead-free push-fit ball valves feature an innovative connection that allows for tool-free installation. They simply "push" onto copper, CPVC, or PEX pipes, creating a secure seal. This ease of use makes them a favorite for both professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts.

Lead-Free Sillcocks
Lead-free sillcocks, also known as hose bibbs or outdoor faucets, are installed on the exterior of buildings. They provide a safe and lead-free connection for garden hoses and outdoor water access.

Lead-Free Y Strainers
Lead-free Y strainers are installed in pipelines to mechanically remove unwanted solids and debris from the fluid flow. The "Y" shape allows for easy access to the screen for cleaning without disrupting the main pipeline. They are essential for protecting sensitive downstream equipment from damage.

Lead-Free Low-Pressure Valves
Lead-free low-pressure valves are designed for applications where fluid pressure is below 150 PSI. These valves are used in a variety of non-critical applications, such as irrigation and general water distribution, where maintaining lead-free standards is still a priority.
