Description
The 2" Gate Valve Slip x Slip is a heavy-duty PVC flow control valve designed for smooth, precise regulation of water flow in pond, water feature, and filtration plumbing systems. Unlike ball valves that open and close abruptly, gate valves allow gradual adjustment—ideal for dialing in pumps, waterfalls, and filter flow rates.
This valve features slip (socket) connections on both ends, allowing it to be permanently solvent-welded into 2" PVC plumbing lines for a secure, leak-free installation.
