Built from ABS plastic, each valve includes a union end for fast disconnection, a replaceable stem and O-rings, and a secure handle for quarter-turn operation. With a maximum working pressure of 50 psi, these valves are intended for residential pool and spa equipment where compatibility with 1.5\" Hayward-style fittings is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this valve fit with existing 1.5\" pool plumbing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TonGass valve is made to mate directly with common 1.5\" male and female pipe adapters used on skimmers, pumps, and filters.
