Burkle White PP Ball Valves provide controlled liquid flow from compatible containers, drums, and liquid-handling systems. This product family includes three configurations with G 1/2", G 3/4", and G 1" inlet threads, each paired with a corresponding metric external outlet thread.
Constructed from polypropylene (PP) with NBR and PTFE components, these white ball valves are designed for laboratory, food and beverage, production, and other liquid-handling applications where a threaded valve is required. Burkle specifies a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar at +20°C and a maximum operating temperature of 80°C. Burkle also identifies this valve family as suitable for food applications.
The primary selection factor is the inlet thread size and the outlet connection required by your system. Choose the appropriate variant based on the G-thread connection on your container and the metric M-thread required on the discharge side.
Three Burkle White PP Ball Valve configurations are available. The models share the same general valve family but differ in inlet size, outlet thread, and nominal diameter.
| Burkle SKU | Inlet / Container Side | Outlet Side | Nominal Diameter | Choose This Variant When... |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0500-8102 | G 1/2" internal thread | M29 × 1.75 external thread | 15 mm | Your container requires a G 1/2" internal inlet connection and the outlet requires M29 × 1.75. |
| 0500-8103 | G 3/4" internal thread | M36 × 3 external thread | 20 mm | Your container requires a G 3/4" internal inlet connection and the outlet requires M36 × 3. |
| 0500-8101 | G 1" internal thread | M42 × 3 external thread | 25 mm | Your container requires a G 1" internal inlet connection and the outlet requires M42 × 3. |
The product family covers G 1/2", G 3/4", and G 1" internal inlet connections. This allows the valve to be selected according to the threaded connection already present on the container or liquid-handling system.
The valve body is made from polypropylene (PP) and is supplied in white. Burkle also specifies NBR and PTFE among the valve materials. This combination makes the valve suitable for a range of liquid-handling applications, subject to chemical compatibility with the specific medium.
Unlike a valve with a simple outlet spout, these models use external metric threads on the discharge side. The outlet sizes are matched to the individual inlet configuration: M29 × 1.75, M36 × 3, or M42 × 3.
Burkle identifies this white PP ball valve family as suitable for food applications and provides food-contact documentation for the applicable models and materials. This makes the family relevant to food and beverage processing and liquid-handling applications where the appropriate documentation and operating conditions are met.
Burkle specifies a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar (145 psi) at +20°C. This provides a defined pressure specification for systems where operating pressure is an important part of valve selection. The rating should not be assumed to remain unchanged at other temperatures or conditions.
Burkle specifies the flow rate as low flow rate. These valves are therefore intended for controlled liquid flow rather than applications where very high-volume transfer is the primary requirement.
Select the valve by matching the inlet thread on your container and the metric thread required on the outlet.
| If Your Container Has... | Select | Outlet |
|---|---|---|
| G 1/2" internal thread | 0500-8102 | M29 × 1.75 external |
| G 3/4" internal thread | 0500-8103 | M36 × 3 external |
| G 1" internal thread | 0500-8101 | M42 × 3 external |
A nominal 1/2", 3/4", or 1" size does not by itself confirm compatibility. These valves use G internal inlet threads and M external outlet threads. Confirm both thread standards and sizes before ordering. If you are replacing an existing valve and are unsure of the connection, contact Cambridge with the container manufacturer, model number, and a photo of the fitting.

Burkle identifies these white PP ball valves as suitable for food applications and provides manufacturer food-contact documentation for the product family. The valves use polypropylene, food-suitable NBR, and PTFE components as specified by Burkle.
Food-contact suitability remains dependent on the specific application, medium, temperature, and applicable regulatory requirements. The manufacturer's documentation should be reviewed when the valve will be used with food, beverages, or drinking water.
Burkle's food-contact documentation should not be interpreted as a blanket Canadian regulatory approval or certification. For Canadian food, beverage, or drinking-water applications, confirm that the selected valve and complete installation meet the requirements applicable to your specific process.
Burkle lists several accessories specifically for the white PP ball valve family, including container connections, threaded tube bends, and PTFE sealing tape. These accessories can help adapt the valve to compatible containers and discharge configurations.

Match the inlet thread: The three models use G 1/2", G 3/4", or G 1" internal inlet threads. Confirm the thread size on your container before selecting a valve.
Match the outlet thread: Each model has a different metric external outlet thread. The 1/2" model uses M29 × 1.75, the 3/4" model uses M36 × 3, and the 1" model uses M42 × 3.
Do not assume nominal sizes are interchangeable: G and M threads use different thread standards. A nominally similar size does not necessarily indicate compatibility.
Check chemical compatibility: The valve contains PP, NBR, and PTFE components. Confirm compatibility with the specific liquid, concentration, temperature, and exposure conditions before use.
Check complete-system ratings: Burkle specifies 10 bar maximum operating pressure at +20°C and 80°C maximum operating temperature. The container, fittings, tubing, and other connected components must also be rated for the intended operating conditions.
