Is the polymer body valve capable of operating at high pressure?
Yes, the polymer body valve is composed of reinforced polyamide (nylon) which is approved for pressurized, potable cold water service in many areas of the country. Valves of this type are used in hundreds of thousands of pressurized applications particularly in agricultural irrigation and high-flow sprinkler systems which demand high flow, frequent cycling, and reliability. Check with your local building inspector to learn if any restrictions apply.
