what is inside diameter of the 2 ends? 1/2"? 5/8"? I.e., of each pipe of the Y. Some Ys are high flow-5/8" and some are only 1/2". Fittings are the same but 1/2" Ys would lower flow even with 5/8" or 3/4" hoses. Thanks.

I did my best to measure it and it appears to be 5/8", sorry it took so long, I have been quit ill.

IT FITS MY 5/8 HOSES. I BELIEVE THE CONNECTORS ON BOTH HOSES ARE THE SAME. QUICK CONNECTORSSCREW INTO METAL COIt fits my 5/8 METAL hose end. I believe the METAL hose ends on both hose sizesare standard size.

This is a very important issue. Yes, it's a 3/4" pipe thread at the inlet, but inside, the outlet opening is restricted down to about 9/32". So, you lose about 2/3 of your flow. I was redoing my long drip irrigation lines where I needed to maximize the flow. I returned mine and bought a bunch (14) at a big box store (blue/gray colors), which had much less restriction. In my opinion, it's more a volume issue and not so much a pressure issue, as the higher restriction increases the pressure, but lowers the volume. Now I get the flow I need. These are, however, nice little, well-made valves and I'd use them on an application where I didn't need that much volume. This is a very important issue.

Hi Adam. There are connections at each corner of one side. One connection is a plastic protrusion that you can slip a tube over and use a hose clamp. I believe it was 1.25 inch. The other three corners are plastic bosses with female pipe threads. I believe they are 1/2 inch but I don't remember and I wouldn't be able to measure it for quite some time.

I believe that all of these shower valves are sized the same and seem to recall it to be 1/2". If you can get to a plumbing supply outlet and get the size of one you should have the size of all.The 1/2" was disappointing because I was seeking a drench type of flow.Finally realized I would have to replumb using non standard fittings and valves to get it done.

1/2 inside Diameter or 1/2 ID is the term often used. You may have to get a male barb also, with 1/2" thread to screw into the ball valve. Just match the barb and the hose up when you shop.

Not sure if 1/2 or 3/4 but hooks up to a standard hose. I'm sure you could find a coupler at a hardware store to reduce the threading size.

The question is how low is low? I bought the 3/8 and 1/2 size. The reading I was looking for was 105 and 240 to 280 inch pounds on several fittings. The 3/8 measured these just fine. I never even used the 1/2 adapter. Hope this helps. e-mail back if you still have questions.

I'm not sure how you measure that exactly, I was only concerned about the hose size. I put a caliper inside where the fittings screw in, it was just a bit under 3/8 inch. I hope that helps.

OK... but isn't the reality of it that the I.D. of a 1/4" fitting (which by the way is the PIPE THREAD size of the fitting, not the inner size) roughly the same as that of a 3/8" air hose? Yes, it is.Then, take a look at the inside diameter of the standard AIR FITTING... pretty small, isn't it? Bottom line is this: For the very short time that the air is passing through the smaller diameter air fitting, the pressure drop across that fitting is negligible.

The inside diameter of the wall connection hose end is 1.25 inches; the outside diameter of the wall connection hose end is just shy of 1.5 inches. The outside diameter of the flexible portion of the hose is also just shy of 1.5 inches. The hose is primarily plastic, but it's flexible (allows it to curve and coil), not "hard", although the cross section of the plastic portion is fairly rigid. The diameter of the metallic hose end that connects to the wand is approximately 1 1/8 inches.

The fittings included were 1/2" and work great. I went from a 3/4" pipe to 1/2 with standard fittings. The heater guy who I had check the installation was quite happy with how everything worked. I like the ability to fit the pipe and it holds that shape. I did not make any real tight bends and would use a conduit bender for that had I needed a tighter bend. I would definitely purchase this again if I needed it. The only "knock" about it is it can't be buried so I could use it outside to feed a grill.

Only 1/4", you can get reducers to go from one size to another. However if you are looking at the kind of flow needed for a half inch line, you will need a lot larger pump.

Hi talked to tech guy at Liberty they recommended 2" for best flow but suppose min. Would be 1.5" ...for code think they will require 2" upc Hope that helps

I have about 5 inches of pipe after my header collector but before the Y pipe that comes with the cutout. You could get away with a little less. The Y pipe is a total length of around 6 inches, you could just cut out a 6 inch section like its a normal exhaust pipe.

I have 2 of these soaker hoses. the OD is 5/8 and works with all 5/8 fitting from home depot and tractor supply. This is way better than the cheap stuff that is 1/2 inch. NOT 1/2 inch.

The spigot is tapered so you can use various sizes. I use a 3/8 and 5/8 without any issues.
