3/4" NPT Lead-Free Full Port Brass Ball Valve – 600 PSI CWP (MBB-75NL)
The PneumaticPlus MBB-75NL is a professional-grade 3/4" NPT Lead-Free Full Port Brass Ball Valve engineered for reliable flow control in manual shutoff applications. Rated for 600 PSI CWP / 150 PSI WSP and featuring a blow-out proof stem, it serves as a durable isolation valve for air lines, potable water service, and compatible fluid handling systems. This model features a 0.75" full port bore (A), designed to help maintain flow and reduce restriction through the valve body.
- Bore (Full Port) design with a 0.75" internal opening helps minimize flow restriction at the point of use.
- Vacuum Service rated up to 29" Hg, making it suitable for both pressurized and vacuum-based systems.
- Forged lead-free brass body and valve cap (C46400) provide durability in demanding commercial and industrial environments.
- PTFE ball seat and packing with NBR O-ring provide a reliable seal and smooth operation across a wide temperature range.
- Blowout-proof stem ensures safer operation under pressure.
- Quarter-turn handle allows for fast shutoff with a clear visual of the open/closed position.
- Approved for potable water service and compliant with NSF/ANSI 61-8 and NSF/ANSI 372 standards.
Versatile Applications & Use Cases
The MBB-75NL is designed for reliability across a wide spectrum of industrial, commercial, utility, and potable water environments:
- Main Water Line Isolation: Suitable for lead-free shutoff applications in potable water service and plumbing systems.
