The 81068 FM Ball Valve is a specialized flow control solution engineered for reliability, ease of use, and compatibility with diverse plumbing and light industrial systems. Designed to deliver quick on/off functionality, this valve combines robust construction with a space-saving form factor, making it ideal for both professional installations and DIY projects.
Available in four standard sizes to match common piping requirements:
- 1/2″FM-B
- 3/4″FM-B
- 1″FM-B
- 1-1/4″FM-B
The valve body is forged from high-grade brass, ensuring:
- Excellent corrosion resistance for potable water, mild chemicals, and oil-based fluids.
- Long-term durability against pressure fluctuations and environmental wear.
The “FM” designation refers to a hybrid connection design:
- One end features a female thread (for connecting to male-threaded pipes/fittings).
- The opposite end has a male thread (for joining to female-threaded components).
This dual-thread design eliminates the need for adapters, streamlining installation.
A red butterfly-style handle enables:
- Effortless manual control (even with gloved hands).
- 90° rotation for quick on/off functionality.
- Compact profile that minimizes interference in tight spaces.
Precision-machined internal components and a robust sealing system ensure zero leakage, preserving system efficiency and preventing water damage.
Engineered to handle standard plumbing pressures (up to 16 bar for water applications), making it suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial use.
Suitable for both hot and cold water systems (operating range: -10°C to 120°C), as well as mild-temperature fluid transfer.
- Residential Plumbing: Kitchens, bathrooms, water heaters, and boiler isolation.
- Commercial Spaces: Restaurants, offices, and retail facilities for water supply control.
- Light Industry: Small-scale machinery, cooling loops, and non-corrosive fluid distribution.
- Versatility: Dual-threaded FM design fits seamlessly into existing piping setups.
- Durability: Brass construction resists rust, scaling, and wear.
- Ease of Use: Ergonomic butterfly handle for quick operation.
