1/2" x 3/8" OD Brass Straight Ball Stop, Lead-Free

BrassCraft G2PS14X C – 1/2" Nom Push Connect x 3/8" OD Compression Straight Stop Valve

The BrassCraft G2PS14X C is a straight stop valve featuring a 1/2 inch nominal push connect inlet and a 3/8 inch OD compression outlet. Designed for residential water supply shut-off applications, this quarter-turn valve provides a secure transition from copper, PEX, or CPVC pipe to standard supply lines connected to plumbing fixtures such as faucets, toilets, and dishwashers.

The valve body is manufactured from forged brass and incorporates a one-piece design for added strength. The push connect inlet requires no special tools or soldering—simply push the valve onto the tubing for a reliable, watertight seal. A pre-installed tube stiffener is included to support PEX installations. The 1/4-turn operation offers precise control and fast shutoff capability.
