APEC Water Systems Tank Ball Valve (3/4" NPTF, 3/8" Output)

Installed this on my upgraded larger RO tank. Works well. One note, I removed the black washer ring from inside and just used Teflon tape. Don't really like a black washer to come in contact with my drinking water.

Used for pressure tank. Worked and fit perfectly.

Works as it should, Is of good quality

If you need a ball valve for a 3/8” npt fitting this is a good option. I would have preferred all metal construction but the plastic felt reasonable well built and I don’t anticipate having any issues.

Like almost all Chinese plumbing fittings sold on Amazon, is a metric 3/4" adapter, but it works just fine on an APEC tank.

Added a new 20gallon tank to my home APEC reverse osmosis water filter. Fit without issue and now I have the original 4 gallon tank and a 20 gallon tank, no more running out of water.

3/4" fitting is chrome plated. Not obvious in the description or in photos on web page. Replacing the nipple between the 3/4" and JG valve with a JG valve that threads directly into the fitting. I gave it 4 stars instead of five because of this. This makes for one less failure point to potentially leak, since I'm placing the tank into a cabinet where it will not be clearly visible or easily accessible if it does.

This fitting worked great on my apec 11 gallon RO tank with 3/4” male thread on top of tank. It allowed me to go directly from tank to 3/8 flex line out to my RO faucet. Didn’t have to use a bunch of fittings and reducers to get from 3/4” to 3/8” and the 3/4” female fitting is plated steel or stainless not sure
