16 mm x 3/4-Inch Female Locking Irrigation Valve

This 16 mm x 3/4-inch female locking irrigation valve combines a locking line connection with a female threaded port. Its green handle provides manual control at the transition between the compatible line and a matching male fitting.

Two different connection checks

• Line connection: 16 mm locking end.
• Threaded connection: 3/4-inch female port.
• Operation: manual green handle.

Confirm the line dimensions and wall fit at the locking end. At the opposite port, match both the size and thread standard of the male fitting. A 16 mm line label and a three-quarter-inch port describe different connection dimensions, so verify each independently.

Place the valve where it is easy to reach

The green locking nut secures the line end, and the black female connection fits onto the matching male adapter. Leave room around the handle for operation and around both connections for inspection. Support the surrounding line so bending or pulling does not strain the threaded joint.

Fit and check the assembly

Turn off and depressurize the supply. Cut the line cleanly and seat it fully in the locking connection. Clean the mating threads and use the sealing method appropriate to the confirmed thread type. Tighten carefully without damaging the plastic fitting or forcing a mismatched thread.

Flush the line before normal service. Restore water gradually, operate the handle and inspect both joints. Close the valve to control the downstream branch; turn off the supply before removing the valve or working on the supply-side connection.

Choose by size and connection

Select this valve when your installation requires a locking line end and a female port. Handle color identifies this version, while the mating dimensions determine fit. Compare irrigation valves for other threaded or takeoff layouts.
