Gilmour 800444-1001 Hose Shut-off Valve 3/4 in Female Male

Product Description

The GILMOUR 800444-1001 is a 3/4-inch garden hose shut-off valve with female-to-male threading and a vinyl construction. It provides a simple on/off control point anywhere along a standard garden hose line, allowing water flow to be stopped without returning to the spigot. The valve threads onto standard 3/4-inch hose fittings and is suited for residential irrigation, wash-down, and general outdoor water distribution tasks. Plumbers, irrigation techs, and knowledgeable DIYers install this type of valve where quick flow control is needed without a permanent fixture.

This shut-off valve is designed for use with standard 3/4-inch garden hose assemblies in residential and light commercial outdoor watering applications. It connects inline between hose sections or at the terminal end of a supply hose, giving the user a dedicated shutoff point at the work area. Typical uses include garden irrigation, hose bib extensions, and temporary water supply runs where tool-free shutoff is required.

Key Features

• 3/4-inch thread size matches standard garden hose fittings
• Female inlet and male outlet connection for inline or end-of-hose installation
• Vinyl construction provides corrosion resistance for outdoor use
• Compact form factor at 2 inches long for easy inline placement
• Lightweight at 1.4 pounds, suitable for portable hose setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for standard 3/4-inch garden hose shut-off valve applications in residential outdoor water distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply at the source before attaching or removing this valve. Thread connections by hand first, then snug with pliers if needed — do not overtighten vinyl fittings, as excess torque can crack the body. This type of valve is typically installed by irrigation technicians or homeowners without specialized tools. Inspect threads on both the valve and the mating hose fitting for damage before connecting.
