About this item

This valve joins drip tape to a threaded supply outlet and places a compact rotary control at the row entrance. The male threaded end connects to the receiving female fitting; the locking collar retains compatible tape on the opposite end.

Choose the connection

Four combinations are available: 16 mm tape with 1/2-inch thread, 16 mm with 3/4-inch thread, 20 mm with 1/2-inch thread, and 20 mm with 3/4-inch thread. Check the tape wall profile and receiving thread standard before ordering.

Plan and fit the branch

With the water off, connect the threaded end using the sealing method appropriate to the fitting. Avoid using the tape collar as a wrench. Seat the tape fully on the insert and tighten the collar by hand.

Flush and inspect

Support the supply fitting and let the tape leave without a sharp bend. Restore water slowly and inspect both joints. Operate the handle while watching the row supply. Separate pressure control is needed where the tape system requires it.
