Double-Male Threaded Irrigation Valve, 1/2 & 3/4 Inch

This double-male threaded irrigation valve provides manual control in a straight connection between compatible female-threaded components. It has an external thread at each end and a green butterfly-style handle on top. The compact arrangement is useful where a threaded connection also needs an accessible control point.

Choose matching ends

The available combinations are 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch x 3/4 inch. Both ends of each option have the same nominal size. This valve is not a reducer between different thread diameters.

Check the thread standard of the valve and both receiving fittings before assembly. A matching inch label does not by itself prove that two threaded components will join correctly. Confirm the intended service conditions and compatibility with the rest of the irrigation assembly as well.

Leave room to operate the handle

Position the valve so the handle can move freely and be reached without pulling on surrounding pipework. Allow space to inspect both threaded joints. Support connected components independently when their weight could load the valve body.

Assemble and check the joints

Switch off the supply and release pressure first. Inspect the threads, remove debris and start both connections squarely. Apply the sealing method suitable for the confirmed thread connection, taking care not to force a crossed thread or overtighten the assembly.

Restore water gradually, operate the handle and inspect both joints for leakage. Check that the connected line responds as expected. Turn off the supply before correcting a leaking joint. Compare irrigation fittings when choosing adapters for the adjoining components.
