Yardwe Drip Irrigation Valve Drip Irrigation Barbed Valve, 16mm 1/2 Inch Drip Irrigation Tubing Shut-Off Valve Drip Irrigation Parts, 10PCS

Valves work well in general. I installed 10 and I had 1 that was leaking around the red valve handle, but it's quite possible I damaged it while trying to insert the 1/2" tubing onto it. I had 2 others out of the 10 have small drip leaks around the tubing so the ribbed connections could be a hair tighter, but nothing major. Overall I recommend.

We use these as part of getting water out to our field with Rain Bird T70-500S Drip Irrigation 1/2" tubing. They feel a little breakable, but haven't actually had any problems. We don't have leakage problems either, despite continuous back pressure from a holding tank.

Used these for the misting system in my shade house. Easy to install and helped to create different zones but, over time they haven’t held up to the pressure…. Literally! Three of them have blown out when the valve was in the closed position, resulting in a massive waist of water. Fortunately, the system is on a timer and I’m on a well. Can’t imagine the water bill if I wasn’t! For the price, I won’t bash the product, but be careful with it!

Great idea, poor execution/poor quality control. During installation, I thought everything went together a little too easily and sure enough, turned the water on and they blew apart- not snug enough. Took them apart, wrapped with layers of plumbers tape, still blew apart. Sealed with silicone (& let dry), still fountain city. Finally used hose clamps and it started leaking out of the top - probably would have blown the handles off if I kept the water on. I tried different ones because they do seem to be slightly varied (quality control -hah!) but all of them let go at some point. Take my advice and get compression sleeve style ball valves, kind of hard to find but work much better.

Work well, easy to use!

Reasonable priced and works well with half inch drip irrigation system.

Used them for a self watering system for my quail.

I found them difficult to obtain a water tight seal even though I used metal crimping rings on them. Would not buy them again.
