GOVALVE Heavy Duty Gate Valve - 1 1/4" NPT Stainless Steel Female x Female Thread Rotary Sluice Valve with Wheel Handle 200WOG For Water Oil Gas

Finally found something I could actually turn myself. Facet handle nice and easy to adjust flow to my waterfall.

I installed this on an expansion tank and so far so good.

Used this in a radiant heating application- this is a solid valve and so far I have no complaints. Well made and dimensionally correct and consistent.

This reveiw is for a 3/4 npt gate valve. Alot of slop before turning big red knob and getting "action''. Not sure how well the seals I use it to meter the garden hose volumn If you are going to try to use this for anything more than 60 to 80 psi what out. The valve thread wallis are thin and would stretch easily and threading depth is too shallow so pipe bottoms out on the gate before threads seal. I think they would build it right if they knew how tapered pipe thread works. that is why they send 2 rolls of teflon tape 1 for each end? In reality it is fauly because even if you use their pipe it won't seal

GOOD PRICE, LASTS FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS.

Looks very nice and solid, however it's not performing as well, it leaks a little nomatter how hard i try to shut the valve.

Valve leaks through a seam under the cap that the handle passes through.
