The Bronze Swivel Ferrule Valve with Compression End NR-F003, a product of Raising Valve’s 20+ years of plumbing expertise, is a reliable solution for applications requiring secure, leak-free fluid control. Constructed from high-grade bronze (including C83600, C84400, and lead-free C89833/C87850), this valve offers exceptional corrosion resistance and durability—ideal for water-based systems. It operates at 16 bar working pressure and -20℃ to 120℃, ensuring stability in diverse environments. The swivel ferrule design enables flexible installation, while the compression ends create a tight seal with PE pipes, eliminating leaks. Available in sizes 1/2”x20mm, 3/4"×25mm, and 1"×32mm with BSP/NPT threads, it complies with BS1400 LG2 standards, making it suitable for water treatment, irrigation, and commercial plumbing.
Bronze, a copper-tin alloy, resists rust and degradation in water systems—even in mildly acidic or alkaline conditions. This makes the NR-F003 ideal for long-term use in irrigation (exposed to soil moisture) or water treatment (exposed to mild chemicals). Lead-free bronze variants meet potable water safety standards, expanding use to residential plumbing.
The swivel ferrule allows the valve to rotate freely during setup, simplifying alignment with PE pipes and existing plumbing. This flexibility reduces the need for extra fittings (e.g., elbows) to adjust flow direction, cutting installation time and minimizing stress on pipe connections. It also simplifies maintenance, as the valve can be rotated without disconnecting pipes.
The valve’s compact size makes it suitable for installations with limited access, such as under-sink plumbing in commercial kitchens or utility closets in apartment buildings. It fits easily between existing pipes without requiring major layout modifications.
In treatment plants, the NR-F003 regulates water flow through sediment filters, UV disinfection units, or chemical dosing systems. The compression ends ensure no leaks (critical for maintaining treatment efficiency), and the bronze body resists corrosion from treatment chemicals.
Farmers use the valve to control water flow to drip or sprinkler systems. The swivel ferrule simplifies alignment with underground PE pipes, and the compression ends prevent leaks that waste water—critical for water-scarce regions. The bronze body also withstands outdoor elements (e.g., sunlight, rain).
Restaurants, hospitals, and schools use the NR-F003 in their plumbing networks (e.g., connecting to water heaters, dishwashers, or restroom fixtures). The leak-tight compression ends prevent water damage to floors or equipment, while the compact design fits in small utility spaces.
Homeowners use the valve in potable water lines (e.g., under sinks or behind washing machines). The lead-free bronze option is safe for drinking water, and the compression ends ensure no leaks—protecting cabinets and flooring from water damage.
The compression ends are optimized for PE (polyethylene) pipes. They can also work with PEX pipes using compatible compression rings (sold separately). Contact Raising for ring specifications.
Tighten the nut by hand until it is snug, then use a wrench to turn it 1/4 to 1/2 turn more. Over-tightening can damage the compression ring, causing leaks.
Yes, it operates safely up to 120℃, making it suitable for hot water lines (e.g., residential showers or commercial dishwashers).
Yes. To maintain, turn off the water supply, loosen the compression nut, and inspect the ring for wear. Replace the ring if it is cracked or flattened. The bronze body can be cleaned with a soft brush to remove sediment.
It complies with BS1400 LG2 (a global standard) and meets most local codes for water systems. Check with your local building authority for region-specific requirements.
