Midline Valve 482T300 PVC Ball Valve Red T-Handle Water Shut-Off 3 in. Solvent Connections White Plastic, 3

Quality better than expected. Very good for price.

This valve did exactly what I needed it to do and a very good price.

The ball valve is heavily built with 3/8" wall. However, it take a lot of force to turn the handle. I ended up using a 1.25" 1.5ft long PVC pipe to slide in the handle to make it easier to turn. The description said it will work for both SCH40 and SCH80 pipes. I thought they came with an adapter for SCH80. But they lied, it is only for SCH40 pipes

I needed 6 but I only ordered 2 because I wasn't expecting the good quality of the valves that showed up, they ended up being great so I imeadiatly ordered the other 4, all installed and working great.

Perfect ! Long handle makes it easier for on/off positioning.

Was impressed with delivery timings.Durable material.Well built

Spent hours lubricating, banging it open and closed with a rubber mallet. Then I posted on a plumbers group and they all know that these valves are total junk and immediately bind. Some were saying they install them with unions bc they have to replace them constantly, others were saying they have spare handles bc the handles routinely break while trying to open and close the valves. It is really, really hard to operate this valve, even after lubricating and moving it many times. They just suck. Pay extra for a stainless or brass then use a PVC threaded npt adapter from Lowes to glue in. Done and will last forever.

fine but only issue is that the valve handle is very hard to turn.
