Matco-norca 22911 Ball Valve 1 in Mnpt X Pex Cold Expansion Reduced Price

The MATCO-NORCA 22911 is a lead free, full port ball valve designed for use in PEX piping systems. It features a 1 inch male NPT inlet and a 1 inch PEX cold expansion outlet conforming to the ASTM F1960 standard. The full port design allows unrestricted flow through the valve body, minimizing pressure drop across the fitting. This valve is installed by licensed plumbers working on residential or light commercial potable water distribution systems where lead free compliance is required by code.

This valve is suited for cold expansion PEX connections in new construction and remodel plumbing projects. The F1960 cold expansion connection method requires an expansion ring and PEX expander tool to seat the tubing over the fitting body. The MNPT end threads directly into standard female NPT fittings, manifolds, or equipment ports. Typical applications include main shutoffs, branch isolation, and equipment isolation in domestic water systems.

Key Features

• Lead free construction meets potable water code requirements in jurisdictions following NSF 372 and state lead free mandates
• Full port ball valve design reduces flow restriction and pressure drop
• 1 inch cold expansion PEX outlet conforms to ASTM F1960 standard
• 1 inch male NPT inlet for direct connection to threaded fittings and equipment ports
• Ball valve mechanism provides positive shutoff with a quarter-turn operation

Compatibility

Designed for use with ASTM F1960 cold expansion PEX tubing systems using 1 inch expansion rings. The threaded inlet is compatible with standard 1 inch female NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or servicing this valve. The F1960 cold expansion connection requires a compatible PEX expander tool and the correct size expansion ring — do not attempt the connection without the proper tooling. Inspect the expansion ring and tubing seat for proper engagement before restoring system pressure.
