The inlet accepts compatible tubing using the valve's integrated push-to-connect mechanism.
Full-Port Ball
The internal full-port opening helps maintain flow while minimizing restriction when the valve is fully open.
Push-In Outlet
The opposite push-to-connect end continues the piping run without requiring soldering or crimping.
Construction Details
Midland Lead-Free Brass Push-In Ball Valves are manufactured from forged brass for dependable mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life in compatible plumbing systems.
The full-port internal design helps minimize pressure loss while the quarter-turn lever provides quick, positive shutoff.
Integrated push-to-connect ends simplify installation and eliminate the need for solder, open flame, or separate crimp rings.

Push-In Installation
Cut the tubing square, remove burrs, and clean the outside surface before inserting it into the valve.
Mark the required insertion depth where applicable and push the tubing fully into the valve until properly seated. Verify the tubing type and size are approved for the specific valve before installation.
Our plumbing specialists can help review your tubing material, valve size, potable water requirements, installation method, pressure, temperature, and system compatibility before you order.

What type of valve is this?
This is a lead-free forged brass full-port ball valve with Push-In connections on both ends.
What does Push-In mean?
Push-In refers to a push-to-connect fitting design that allows compatible tubing to be inserted directly into the valve connection.
Does installation require soldering?
No. The supplied product information identifies push-to-connect installation without soldering.
Does installation require crimp rings?
No. Push-to-connect ends eliminate the need for separate PEX crimp rings.
What tubing materials are compatible?
The supplied product information identifies compatible copper, CPVC, and PEX tubing where approved by the manufacturer.
What does full port mean?
Full port means the internal opening is designed to provide a larger flow path and help minimize restriction when fully open.
How is the valve operated?
It uses quarter-turn lever operation for fast opening and closing.
Can this valve be used for potable water?
Yes. The supplied product information identifies lead-free construction suitable for potable water applications.
Are multiple sizes available?
Yes. The supplied product information identifies multiple nominal pipe sizes.
What should I do before inserting the tubing?
Cut the tubing square, remove burrs, clean the tubing surface, and verify the required insertion depth before connecting it to the valve.
Should the valve be used for throttling?
Ball valves are generally intended for fully open or fully closed operation rather than prolonged throttling.
What should I verify before installation?
Confirm tubing material, tubing size, push-fit compatibility, pressure, temperature, media, and applicable plumbing requirements.
