The 1" Easy Loc Coupler with Shutoff Valve gives you immediate, manual control over the water flow in your large-diameter mainline tubing. Whether you need to isolate a specific zone for maintenance, shut off a section during harvest, or temporarily stop flow to clean your irrigation filter, this robust valve gets the job done without leaks.
Featuring the industry-leading "Perma-Loc" locking mechanism, this unit connects two pieces of 1" polyethylene tubing securely. It acts as both a coupling and a regulator, making it one of the most versatile irrigation fittings for commercial growers and large residential systems requiring high-flow management.
Designed for 1" Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) tubing.

Installation is tool-free and fast.
Step 1: Prep the Tubing
Ensure your 1" poly tubing has a clean, square cut. Rotate the locking collars on the valve backwards (towards the center of the valve) to expose the barb.
Step 2: Insert Tubing
Push the tubing onto the barb until it hits the internal stop. It may require a little force/wiggling to get over the barb ridges.
Step 3: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collar forward (over the tubing) until tight. This compresses the tubing onto the barb for a leak-proof seal.
Step 4: Test
Turn on your system and operate the handle to ensure flow control is functioning correctly.
Verify your tubing size before ordering:
