Ball valve FERRO KP5 6/4" threaded water connection

FERRO KP5 6/4" threaded ball valve is a compact shut-off valve designed for water installations. The valve uses a rotating ball mechanism and nut-type threaded connections to allow reliable on/off control of water flow. Constructed for domestic and light commercial plumbing, the valve fits into heating circuits, service lines and repair or replacement tasks where threaded pipeline connections are used.

Advantages

The metal ball mechanism provides a straight flow path when open and a tight seal when closed, reducing leakage risk. Threaded nut-type fittings ensure secure and fast attachment to existing pipelines without the need for welding or soldering. The valve’s compact dimensions and simple quarter-turn operation make it easy to install and operate in confined spaces. Materials and construction are selected to withstand typical temperatures and pressures in household water and heating systems.

Suitable for

• Domestic cold and hot water supply lines
• Residential heating circuits and radiators
• Service and maintenance shut-off points
• Replacement of existing threaded valves and fittings

Key specifications

• Connection type: threaded nut-type fittings for 6/4" pipelines
• Function: quarter-turn ball valve for on/off control
• Media: water (cold and hot)
• Typical application: plumbing and heating systems
• Operation: manual handle (quarter-turn)
• Design: compact body suitable for confined installation spaces

How to use

Install the valve into the pipeline by securing the threaded nut-type connections to matching threaded fittings. Ensure thread seals or tape are applied where required by local practice to prevent leaks. Operate the valve with a simple quarter-turn of the handle: rotating the handle 90° opens or closes the flow. For installation and service, isolate the relevant section of the system and depressurize before removing or fitting the valve.

Usage recommendations

Use the valve only with water and within the temperature and pressure limits of typical domestic plumbing and heating systems. Avoid excessive mechanical stress on the threaded connections during tightening; hand-tighten and then apply limited additional torque with a wrench if necessary. Periodically inspect for leaks and ensure the handle moves freely; if the valve shows corrosion or impaired sealing, replace it to maintain system integrity.
