15/20mm Ball Valve Handle BLUE
Product
Are Hansen Ball Valves frost friendly?
Hansen Ball Valves are frost friendly and have been tested in frost conditions. Results may vary in freezing conditions.
Can I use my Hansen Ball Valve with my swimming pool/spa pool set up?
No, as the high concentration of chlorine used in the water for pools, will attack the material. The fitting material is only suitable for use with domestic water. Hansen products that are used in this application will not be covered by our limited lifetime warranty.
Can I use these Ball Valves with metal fittings?
Yes.
Do I need to support my Ball Valve?
Yes. All pipe work must be adequately supported.
How tight should I tighten my Ball Valves?
Do not over tighten. The right way to tighten a Ball Valve is hand tight plus one to two turns-no more.
What temperature can I use Hansen fittings at?
Hansen have tested all its products for use with cold water up to a maximum temperature of 60°C (140°F). We do not recommend the use of these products with temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) as plastic expands due to temperature increases. Hansen cannot guarantee the products will perform when used with temperatures over 60°C (140°F). Hansen products that have failed in temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) will not be covered by our limited lifetime warranty.
What type of sealant should I use?
Use a thread sealant on all threaded connections. We recommend Loctite 5331.
