This brass union ball valve features Male × Male threaded connections, a compact union-style body configuration and a blue lever handle for manual quarter-turn operation.
The double-male threaded design provides an alternative to conventional Female × Female ball valves where externally threaded valve connections are required.
For quotation, buyers should provide the required valve size, thread standard, operating conditions and quantity.

Male × Male Threaded Connections
This valve uses external male threads on both pipeline connections.
The Male × Male configuration is useful where the adjoining piping components use compatible female-threaded connections.
Buyer Tip: always specify the required nominal size and pipe-thread standard when requesting a quotation. Matching nominal size alone does not guarantee thread compatibility.
For more information about common international pipe threads, see our BSP vs NPT thread guide.
Union-Style Ball Valve Design
The union-style body configuration provides a compact connection arrangement compared with a conventional fixed threaded ball valve design.
This type of configuration can be useful in piping assemblies where installation layout and future valve removal need to be considered during product selection.
The exact installation method should be based on the selected valve specification and mating piping components.
