SharkBite 246322 1/2-in Push-to-Connect Stop and Waste Valve with Drain, Forged Brass

The SharkBite 2463 Series is a 1/2-in push-to-connect x 1/2-in push-to-connect stop and waste valve with an integrated drain/vent, built for rough-in shut-off applications behind the wall or under the floor. This family page covers both the 24634LF and 24635LF models, which share the same forged brass body, push-to-connect connections, and multi-turn drain/vent design while differing by model number for ordering purposes. The push-to-connect fitting body accepts any combination of copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT pipe with no solder, glue, unions, or specialty tools required, and the fitting can be rotated on the pipe after installation to ease alignment in tight rough-in spaces. A durable forged brass body gives the valve strength for long-term service, while the multi-turn handle provides precise on/off water flow control at the stop.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1/2-in push-to-connect x 1/2-in push-to-connect connections for direct pipe-to-valve installation.
  • Durable Construction: Forged brass body construction for added strength and long-term reliability in rough-in service.
  • Push-to-Connect Design: No solder, glue, unions, or additional tools required for installation, speeding up rough-in work.
  • Multi-Pipe Compatibility: Push-to-connect fittings work with copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT pipe in any combination.
  • Rotatable Fitting: Fitting can be rotated on the pipe after installation, making it easier to work in tight spaces.
  • Multi-Turn Valve: Multi-turn handle allows precise regulation of on/off water flow at the stop.
  • Integrated Drain/Vent: Built-in drain vent simplifies cold-weather maintenance and helps protect the line against freezing.
  • Serviceable Connection: Compatible with the SharkBite demount clip (sold separately) to release the pipe from the fitting if needed.
  • Model Options: Available as model 24634LF or 24635LF, both sharing the 2463 Series forged brass stop and waste valve design.

Why SharkBite?

SharkBite's push-to-connect stop and waste valve is built around a forged brass body for strength and a fitting design that installs without solder, glue, unions, or specialty tools, saving time on the jobsite. Available in the 24634LF and 24635LF models, both built on the same 2463 Series platform, the rotatable fitting and integrated drain/vent give plumbers flexibility during installation and a practical solution for cold-weather line protection, while broad compatibility across copper, PEX, CPVC, and PE-RT pipe makes this valve a versatile choice for rough-in shut-off applications.

SharkBite 24634LF – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can a SharkBite 2463 Series stop and waste valve be installed on PEX and copper, or does it need the same pipe on both ends?
The 2463 Series push-to-connect stop and waste valve takes copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT in any combination, so you can run copper into one end and PEX out the other. No solder, glue, unions, or special tools are needed to make the joint. That makes it practical on repair work where you are tying new PEX into an existing copper line at the shut-off point.
2) What does the drain/vent on a stop and waste valve actually do, and do I need one for winterizing?
The integrated drain/vent lets you bleed the downstream line after you close the stop, which is what you want for seasonal shut-down of hose bibbs, irrigation runs, or unheated spaces. Shut the handle, open the vent, and the water drains out instead of sitting in the pipe where it can freeze and split it. A plain stop valve without a waste port will shut the water off but leaves the line full, so for cold-climate winterization the drain version is the one to specify.
3) Is this a quarter-turn ball valve or a multi-turn stop?
It is a multi-turn stop, not a quarter-turn ball valve. The handle takes several rotations from full open to closed, which lets you throttle flow rather than just snap it on and off. If your spec calls for a quarter-turn ball valve for fast positive shut-off, the 2463 Series is not that valve.
4) Can I rotate a SharkBite push-to-connect valve after it is pushed on to line up the handle?
Yes. The push-to-connect body can be rotated on the pipe after installation, so you can swing the handle to a reachable position once the joint is made. That matters in a tight stud bay or a crawlspace where you cannot pre-aim the valve before pushing it home.
5) How do I get the pipe back off a SharkBite stop and waste valve if I need to move it?
Pipe release is done with the SharkBite demount clip, which is sold separately and is not packed with the valve. The connection is serviceable, so the valve can be pulled off and reused rather than cut out, but order the clip if you do not already carry one in the van.
6) Is a push-to-connect stop and waste valve OK to bury behind a wall or under a floor?
The 2463 Series is built for rough-in shut-off work behind walls and under floors, and that is the stated application for it. The body is forged brass rather than a cast or plated pot metal, which is what gives it the strength for long-term concealed service. Many jurisdictions still want concealed valves reachable through an access panel, so check what your inspector expects on the job.
7) What part numbers do I order for the SharkBite 2463 Series stop and waste valve?
Two models carry the 2463 Series stop and waste valve: 24634LF and 24635LF. Both are the same forged brass, push-to-connect, multi-turn drain/vent design and differ by model number and trade size on the order. Give the model number when ordering so the right trade size ships.
8) How many SharkBite 2463 stop and waste valves come in a case?
Case quantity is 12 each. If you are stocking a multi-family rough-in or standardizing shut-offs across a building, that is the carton you are buying in rather than a single blister pack.
