Easy-to-Install Socket-Connect On/Off Valves for Chemicals
Union fittings on both ends of these valves disassemble for fast installation and removal from your pipeline. Insert unthreaded pipe into the socket ends and bond with primer and cement to create a permanent, leak-tight connection. These valves have a fluoroelastomer seal and a plastic body that can withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications. All have a T-handle that resists accidental movement when snagged or bumped. Valves are full port, so they do not restrict flow.
Lockable T-handles can be fixed in place using a padlock (not included) with a shackle diameter up to 1/4”.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

Union fittings on the ends of these valves disassemble to cut down on installation and removal time. They meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water. Insert unthreaded pipe into the socket ends and bond with primer and cement to create a permanent, leak-tight connection. All valves have a T-handle that resists accidental movement when snagged or bumped. They are full port, so they do not restrict flow. Socket-connect union by socket-connect union valves of pipe sizes 1/2 through 2 come with additional NPT female fittings.
Lockable T-handles can be fixed in place using a padlock (not included) with a shackle diameter up to 1/4".
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
