The 3/4" Hose Shutoff puts water control right in the palm of your hand. Whether you are swapping between different hose nozzles or need to stop water flow at the end of a long garden hose run, this valve eliminates the need to walk back and forth to the spigot. As one of our most practical irrigation fittings, it is an essential tool for hand watering, greenhouse management, and temporary drip setups.
Designed with a large, ergonomic lever, this valve allows for smooth quarter-turn operation even with wet or muddy hands. The swivel inlet makes attachment easy, ensuring you can thread it onto any standard garden hose or faucet without kinking your line.

Attach your watering wand, sprinkler, or nozzle to the male threaded outlet.
Step 4: Operate
