We carry valves to suit most any application. The most popular are the AV1E, plated brass lever style. They have tapered valve seats for long life. All metal valves can be self threaded into PVC pipe by first drilling an undersized hole, then thread valve into the plastic pipe by hand or chuck barb on straight valves and drive in with a screwgun style drill. Or, for ease of installation (AV4 or AVW1TB) use a Tap to thread the holes first. For use on drip feed water systems use #AWV1TB, which is a plastic valve designed for water service to be leakproof. Good for use on water or air systems. We also carry inexpensive fixed rate flow emitters for air or water use. Please call if you would like help designing your air or water distribution system.

#1-xx, Plug for outlet and 1 Barb for inlet end, specify size:
 1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2”, 5/8”, 3/4”.
Barb end and plug connection is the standard when connecting a single manifold to a central air pump. We normally supply a short length of 5/8” braided tubing with pump to connect to manifold when purchasing these items together.

#2-xx, Barbs for both ends, specify size:
 1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2”, 5/8”, 3/4”
Barb end connection is the most common, which allows larger diameter flexible vinyl tubing be used between multiple manifolds. Tubing is available in  many common sizes here.
 

#3, Threaded pipe nipples for both ends
Threaded nipples will screw into either end of our 3/4 PVC manifolds and allow side by side connection of multiple manifolds for setups where close together layout of multiple manifolds is desired.

#4: PVC Threaded adapter
Female 3/4” Slip socket x 1/2” Male NPT thread
Threaded end of adapter will thread into ends of any manifold shown in this section below. This end connection facilitates the easy use of our pre-built manifolds with inexpensive Schedule 40 PVC while also maintaining threaded ends in manifold for alteration such as downsizing / upsizing or other future changes in pipe / manifold layout.

Threading Taps & Drill Bits:
All of our taps are high grade HSS (High Speed Steel) for much longer life than cheap Carbon Steel taps. These HSS taps can even be used on steel without damage. 1/8” NPT used for threading holes in PVC pipe to accept Air Valve #AV1. Makes installing a Centralized Air System a simple task. Drill 11/32” holes for 1/8NPT or 1/4”hole for 1/16NPT, then run tap to 1/2 depth with Screw Gun at slow speed and reverse out of hole. 1/16NPT taps use 1/4” or 7/32 drill bit. 10-32 tap use 5/32 or #21 drill bit.

Air or Water Emitters: Use for creating inexpensive drip water feed systems. Easily installed in poly mainline tubing by first piercing a small hole with an awl or hole punch tool (do not drill hole), then press fitting emitter into hole. Use on low pressure water supplies only, (10-30 PSI). Pressure Regulators found here. Emitters will provide a drip flow of water at a fixed rate of flow (actual output may be slightly more or less depending on input pressure), choose from either 1/2 gph or 2 gph flow rates. Connect output of drip emitter with black vinyl drip tubing or airline tubing. If using for air use #AWE.5 for small aquariums and #AWE2 for larger deep tanks.
