Start valve for drip/MDPE hose with rubber grommet – barbed hose tail

Product description

The start valve for drip/MDPE hose with rubber grommet is a practical plastic valve for creating a branch from a main pipe, main line, or water distribution line to a drip hose, irrigation hose, MDPE hose, or suitable PE hose.

This valve is used to create a separate outlet or side line from the main water line. This allows the water flow to a specific irrigation line to be manually opened or closed. This makes the valve ideal for individually controlling drip lines, growing beds, rows, or zones within an irrigation system.

For a proper and leak-proof connection, this valve must be used in combination with a suitable rubber seal / grommet. The rubber seal is placed in the drilled opening of the main pipe, after which the valve is securely mounted. The barbed hose tail ensures a good grip in the connected hose when correctly sized.

The start valve is suitable for use in drip irrigation, greenhouse irrigation, garden irrigation, agriculture, and professional irrigation systems. Thanks to its compact design and clear handle, the water flow can be easily opened or closed manually.

Suitable for connection to 16 mm drip hose, irrigation hose, MDPE hose, or suitable PE hose.
