Watts-BV9038W Flowmatic Elbow Ball Valve 3/8 in Comp X 1/4 in FNPT Black
Flowmatic Elbow Ball Valve 3/8" Comp × 1/4" FNPT
The Watts BV9038W Flowmatic combines an elbow fitting with a ball valve shutoff in one compact component. Built for RO systems, icemakers, and water filters where space is limited and you need a reliable shutoff at a 90-degree angle.
Technical Details
| Model Number | BV9038W (Watts) |
| Inlet Connection | 1/4" FNPT (Female Pipe Thread) |
| Outlet Connection | 3/8" Compression |
| Material | High-strength plastic body |
| Valve Type | Quarter-turn ball valve (45° rotation) |
| Angle | 90-degree elbow configuration |
| Handle Color | Blue |
Installation Applications
The BV9038W fits reverse osmosis systems, under-sink water filters, refrigerator ice makers, and any application requiring a 1/4" male pipe thread inlet with 3/8" OD tubing outlet. The compression fitting seats against polyethylene or nylon tubing without the need for separate ferrules on most installations. Tight-space installations benefit from the integrated elbow design, eliminating the need for separate angle adapters. Use with cold water lines only.
