Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)In the software industry, they would call this a bug. In my opinion, this is a repeatable "SHOW STOPPER"!! I had 3 of these with an Orbit 3 port manifold. All 3 of the valves leaked from BOTH SIDES and then I stumbled onto this thread [...] which basically stated the same problem. I tried a using the thread wrap a little bit, a moderate amount, a significant amount (as directed) and excessive amounts. All with results that were equal to Leaking! In regards to tight, I tried "not to tight", moderately tight and really tight. Also with the same results. Now I'm building my own. :o(
If you question this review.....The instructions state to "put 7-8 wraps of the plumbing tape to keep it from leaking. Trust me, when you get 7-8 full wraps on the threads, there's not much threads left over and even then it leaks. SHAME ON ORBIT!
