Review on Joywayus 3/8" ID Hose Barb, Y Shaped Type 1/2" Male Thread Union Intersection/Split Brass Shut Off Ball Valve Fitting by Isaac Logan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

missed the size - my new review

I thought this was a 2 way hose valve. I missed that it was 1/2" for irrigation systems. That's my bad. It is well made and solid brass. The shut offs were a bit sticky on mine but I lived them with a little dielectric grease and they are much smoother now. I ended up using these on an air hose system in my shed. I had to use some reducers but it is working very well for my needs. The valves are air tight so I imagine they would also be water tight. Not sure if they are rated for 90 PSI but they are holding air.

Pros
  • Can be easily connected to the hose
Cons
  • The valve stem may loosen over time and cause leaks
