1-1/4" PVC Ball Valve, Plastic x Plastic

Legend Valve S-601 1-1/4" PVC Ball Valve – Built for Consistent, High-Flow Shutoff

The Legend S-601 Series Ball Valve in 1-1/4" size is designed for PVC piping systems requiring secure, full-port shutoff. Manufactured from virgin PVC resin conforming to ASTM D1784, this valve provides a corrosion-resistant solution for cold water applications across residential, commercial, and light industrial systems.

Its full-port configuration ensures low restriction and maximum flow, while the solvent weld end connections allow for a permanent, pressure-rated installation. The valve includes a reinforced handle, EPDM seals, and a body engineered to absorb mechanical stress from piping systems.

Installation Considerations

This valve is intended for solvent weld installation in Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC systems. Use compatible primer and cement suitable for the application. Ensure proper curing before pressurization. Although straightforward, solvent welding requires preparation and precise alignment; a qualified technician is recommended for system-critical installations.

Performance Notes for Professionals

For Contractors: The S-601 is engineered for reliable, long-term performance in static and dynamic pressure systems. Its rigid body construction resists deformation, while the full port flow path supports high-volume throughput with minimal energy loss. Ideal for water distribution, irrigation lines, and compatible chemical systems within rated temperature and pressure limits.

For Skilled Installers: Ensure proper pipe deburring and surface prep prior to welding. The valve's ability to absorb vibration and shock load reduces mechanical fatigue on joints and internal components over time.

Additional Design Benefits

• Impact-Resistant Body and Handle – Designed to handle mechanical strain during installation and operation
• Low Torque Operation – Facilitates smooth, reliable actuation under load
• Resists Corrosion and Scale – PVC and EPDM construction is ideal for cold water and select chemical applications
