Raindrip Inc 61700UB 1/2 Inch Compression Shut-off Valve

Product Description

The RAINDRIP INC 61700UB is a compression inlet/outlet shut-off valve designed for use with 1/2-inch drip irrigation hose. It accepts hose with an outer diameter between 0.615 inches and 0.630 inches and is rated for water pressure up to 60 psi. The valve uses green identification rings for quick visual recognition in the field. It installs directly onto compatible 1/2-inch hose using a compression-style connection, requiring no threaded fittings or adhesives. Irrigation technicians and landscape professionals use this valve to add zone control or isolation points within drip distribution lines.

This shut-off valve is suited for residential and light commercial drip irrigation systems. It is intended for use on 1/2-inch poly drip hose only, not threaded pipe or barbed fittings. Typical applications include segmenting irrigation zones, isolating individual rows or runs for maintenance, or capping a line for future expansion. The compression-style design allows installation without specialty tools, making it a practical field component for irrigation service work.
