NIGO Industrial Co. 180SS Series 3-Way (L-Port) Forged Brass Ball Valve, Lever Handle, NPT Female, Full Port 400WOG (1")

Valve is built like a tank, LAST valve I will ever need to buy

Nice valve, works great to expand a heating zone in my basement off my first floor heating zone. I can select to have forced hot water flow through to my basement on the way to my first floor, so turn off the basement and have it the original way (a poor mans zone). More importantly there is no configuration (even half way) that you won't get water flow. Nice touch.I did have one problem with threading in the 3/4" threaded copper sweat adapters. User more Teflon tape than you think. The thread from the standard copper fittings screws in very tightly. I ended up with the smallest of drips. I had to redo a connection and that was a pain. Still 5 stars for being a quality product.

This valve is just the thing for switching air/argon on my Primeweld ct520d for switching between plasma cutting and Tig welding. Needed to reverse the handle for clearance, so it's not intuitive which way the valve is open, hence the markings on the box. Left quick release hose is air in. Clear hose on the right is gas in, bottom clear hose goes to the welder, the red hose goes to the gauge on the welder. Used a double male connector to attach the valve to the air dryer, and the setup is sturdy enough to switch the valve one handed.

The valve leaked through very slowly for two days, then worked fine. It cost about half as much as a domestic brand, now works well, so I'll give it four stars. I've had other Nigo items that worked well.

My 3-way bypass valve in my motorhome failed and found this lead free valve that has well earned reviews. It appears to be as high quality as the valve it replaced for at least 1/2 the cost of buying from an RV supply. Most were going for $49-65 that I found, this was perfect fit and I used blue monster tape and pipe sealant on all the threaded connections and was drip free on first try.

I was using a shower head diverter that was just a piece of junk. After some research I was totally frustrated that not one out of all that are for sale got good results. They all restricted water flow. I jumped ship and went to good old fashion pluming instinct. This was the GOAT! I changed the color of the handle and I will still paint the brass black. If you want a full pressure water diverter for your shower head look no further. Get creative and enjoy the best of the west.

I purchased this valve to replace the cheap plastic winterizing valve in our travel trailer. This valve was an easy replacement for the plastic one. It is well made and appears to have no leaks. It would have been nice if the valve had a screw hole or two to allow for mounting to a flat surface. Instead, I had to use zip ties.

I installed this on my PVC pool fill system. One way diverts water to the normal fill pipe and the other goes to a fountain sprayer. Works great with some 3/4" PVC adapters for this purpose. None of the local stores had this item in stock.

They call it a 3-way valve, but what it really does is select a water output from either of two possible inputs. So to me, that's a 2-way valve! I installed it under the kitchen sink, with one input getting normal softened water, and the other input getting water from before the softener. So when filling jugs to water the house-plants, we can use the un-softened water, avoiding long-term salt build-up in the soils. Otherwise, the valve stays on the "softened" setting for regular kitchen use.
