About this product
Jain PVC Foot Valve is made from high performance rigid PVC compound and keeps the water column in the pump suction pipe, avoiding repeated priming. A strainer screens trash with minimum obstruction to flow, the rubber flap seal gives positive shut-off, and the K value (friction coefficient) is below 0.8, giving energy savings of up to 30%. It is available in 2.5", 3" and 4" sizes (65, 80 and 100 mm) with BSPT or NPT female threaded connection.
