The 3/4" Easy Loc x 3/4" MPT with Valve gives you complete control over individual irrigation lines. By installing this valve at the start of a zone, you can manually turn the water on or off to specific garden beds without shutting down your entire system. It features a 3/4" Male Pipe Thread (MPT) inlet for connecting to PVC manifolds or filters, and a 3/4" Easy Loc outlet for securing your poly tubing.
Ideal for complex garden layouts or commercial irrigation manifolds, this valve combines a robust ball valve mechanism with the reliable Easy Loc connection. This ensures a leak-proof seal on your tubing while giving you the flexibility to isolate lines for maintenance or rotational watering.

Step 1: Tape the Threads
Wrap 3-4 layers of thread seal tape clockwise around the male threads of the valve inlet.
Step 2: Screw into Fitting
Thread the valve into your PVC tee, filter, or manifold outlet. Hand-tighten firmly. Use a wrench carefully if needed, but do not overtighten.
Step 3: Connect Tubing
Rotate the Easy Loc collar backwards to expose the barb. Push your 3/4" poly tubing onto the valve outlet until it hits the stop.
Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collar forward over the tubing to secure the connection.
