Mini valve with fittings on each side for low density 20mm tubing

The Ezfitt Mini Valve with Integrated Fittings for 20mm Low Density Tubing (Reference: 5224-2020) represents an optimal technical solution for all your flow control needs in watering and irrigation systems. This compact valve combines efficiency, durability and ease of installation to meet the requirements of both individuals and professionals.

Designed by Ezfitt, a recognized specialist in hydraulic fittings and accessories, this mini valve directly integrates the connection fittings, thus eliminating the need for additional elements and considerably simplifying your installation.

Practical applications and benefits

This mini valve finds its place in numerous applications: automatic watering systems, drip irrigation, water distribution networks for greenhouses, ponds and fountains, or even light industrial cooling circuits.

For home gardeners, it allows easy sectioning of a watering line, regulating flow to different areas of the garden, or facilitating maintenance without draining the entire network. Landscape and agriculture professionals appreciate its compactness which optimizes space in technical boxes and its reliability which reduces maintenance interventions.

The 20mm diameter corresponds perfectly to the standard low density tubing used in most domestic and semi-professional installations, guaranteeing optimal compatibility with your existing equipment.

Technical specifications and materials

The construction in technical grade polypropylene gives this mini valve excellent chemical resistance and remarkable durability against weather conditions. This thermoplastic material has the advantage of being insensitive to corrosion, unlike metal valves, while maintaining its mechanical properties over long periods of use.

The integrated fittings are designed to ensure perfect sealing with 20mm low density tubing. Their studied geometry allows optimal tightening without risk of damaging the tubing, even during repeated handling. The one-piece design eliminates potential leak points between the valve and fittings.

The internal mechanism uses a ball system that guarantees tight closure and clear opening, allowing precise flow control with minimal operating effort. This proven technology ensures exceptional longevity even in intensive use.

Installation and practical use

Installation of this mini valve takes just a few minutes without specialized tools. Simply cut the tubing at the desired location, insert each end into the fittings provided for this purpose, then manually tighten the compression nuts.

For optimal installation, ensure to cut the tubing perpendicular and deburr the ends. Insert the tubing until it stops in each fitting before gradually tightening the nuts, avoiding excessive tightening which could deform the tubing.

In operation, valve operation is performed by rotating the lever through a quarter turn. Position perpendicular to tubing: valve closed. Parallel position: valve open. This clear visual indication avoids any confusion during maintenance.

For maintenance, occasional rinsing with clear water is sufficient to maintain performance. In case of frost, ensure to drain the valve or remove it to avoid damage from frozen water expansion.
