Gilmour 871204-1001 Hose Shut-off Valve 3/4 Inch Brass

Product Description

The GILMOUR 871204-1001 is a brass garden hose shut-off valve with 3/4-inch female-to-male threaded connections. It provides a simple, durable way to stop water flow at the hose connection point without returning to the spigot. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and handles the mechanical stress of repeated on-off cycling. At 1.63 inches in length and weighing 0.26 pounds, the valve is compact enough to stay inline without adding significant bulk to the hose assembly. Landscapers, irrigation technicians, and plumbers reach for this type of valve when installing or servicing outdoor water distribution lines.

This shut-off valve is suited for residential and light commercial outdoor water applications including garden hose lines, drip irrigation feeds, and utility wash-down stations. The 3/4-inch thread size matches standard garden hose fittings widely found in North American residential and commercial installations. It installs inline between a hose and a downstream nozzle, sprinkler head, or additional hose length, giving the operator local flow control without pressurizing or depressurizing the entire line.

Key Features

• Brass construction resists corrosion and withstands repeated use in outdoor environments
• 3/4-inch female-to-male threaded ends match standard garden hose fittings
• Compact inline design at 1.63 inches in length minimizes added bulk

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/4-inch threaded garden hose assemblies in residential and light commercial outdoor water distribution applications.

Installation Notes

Shut off the upstream water supply before installing or removing the valve to prevent uncontrolled water flow. Thread connections by hand first to avoid cross-threading the brass fittings, then snug with pliers or a wrench. Apply thread seal tape to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. No special tools or licensed trade certification are required for standard garden hose inline installations.
