DAN SPEED 3/4" NPT Female 316 Stainless Steel Full Port Ball Valve Vinyl Handle WOG1000

Really good quality

Rain harvesting and I only needed to order an adapter to go to garden hose. This is coming off a 2700 gallon water tank and needed the larger opening center to actually use the hose like normal. Very well built and I would buy this again.

I am sure that this will be perfect for my 200psi air compressor.

ok

fine product

Good quality ball valve is easy to install and easy to operate. I use this to control the flow to my sprinklers in my garden. The lever makes it easy to tell from a distance if it is open or shut. The action is smooth and positive. I does not leak under normal pressure at the garden which is about 45 psi.

First impression I thought was good, I bought two of these for shutoff valves to my hot water heater which also had a stainless steel connector. High pressure in the house is 65 psi. Upon turning the water back on I discovered water spraying everywhere. The valves leaked at the connections with SS Teflon tape. So I tried pipe dope. Still sprayed water, then I tried both which stopped the leaks at the connections (which were incredibly tight) and then they started to leak from the connection from the two pieces of the ball valve (BOTH OF THEM). I tried tightening them, removing them and checking for defects, pipe doping the threads. Nothing worked so I kept trying to tighten the connections. Now I am not crazy strong or anything, but before I could get the leak to stop I stripped the threads of 316 STAINLESS STEEL!That wasn't a fun experience. So now I have only one ball valve that might still leak and no hot water again until the hardware store opens in the morning. Will never buy from this seller again. I normal human being should not have the physical strength even with pipe wrenches to strip 316 SS.

Threads will not seal using Teflon tape ,took apart twice and and still leaks by threads.
