The chain is fine...but I ordered the wrong size. Nine links of the chain I ordered equals six of the size I wanted. My error...
How can I straighten out the springs? I can't use them coil uo as is.

When a leaking or corroded metal valve disrupts your water line, you need a replacement that won't rust, crack, or seize up over time. These UPVC ball valves are designed for homeowners, plumbers, and DIY builders who need dependable quarter-turn flow control without the maintenance headaches of metal fittings.
Each valve is molded from rigid unplasticized PVC (UPVC), offering excellent chemical resistance and structural rigidity. Available in White and Grey finishes, with interior diameters ranging from 20mm (~¾ in) to 90mm (~3½ in), these valves cover a wide range of pipe sizes for both residential and light commercial applications.
Ideal for cold-water supply shutoff valves in domestic plumbing, drip irrigation system isolation, pond and aquarium filtration pipework, and garden water feature control — wherever a lightweight, corrosion-resistant UPVC ball valve for pipe fitting is required.
A simple 90° lever rotation opens or closes the valve fully, giving you instant, positive flow control with no partial-open ambiguity.
Rigid unplasticized PVC resists rust, scale, and a broad range of chemicals — making these UPVC ball valves suitable for chlorinated water, mild acids, and fertilizer solutions.
Choose from 20mm through 90mm to match your existing pipe bore exactly, eliminating the need for reducers or adapters in most standard installations.
White and Grey finishes let you match the valve to your pipe colour for a clean, professional-looking installation in visible pipework runs.
Significantly lighter than brass or cast-iron equivalents, reducing stress on pipe joints and making overhead or vertical installations easier to handle.
Standard solvent-cement socket connections create a permanent, leak-free bond with compatible UPVC pipe — no threading, no compression fittings, no special tools required.

Measure the interior bore of your existing UPVC pipe — not the outside diameter. Match that measurement to the valve's listed interior diameter (e.g., 20mm ID valve for 20mm bore pipe). If you are unsure, check the pipe manufacturer's datasheet or use a caliper to measure the inside of the pipe end.
UPVC is rated for cold and cool water service. Continuous exposure above approximately 60°C (140°F) can soften the material and reduce pressure rating. For hot water lines, a CPVC or brass valve is recommended instead.
UPVC offers good resistance to chlorinated water, dilute acids, alkalis, and many fertilizer solutions. It is not suitable for concentrated solvents, aromatic hydrocarbons, or ketones. Always verify chemical compatibility with a UPVC resistance chart before use in non-water applications.
Yes — the solvent-weld socket ends are compatible with standard Schedule 40 PVC and PN-rated UPVC pressure pipe of the same nominal diameter. Ensure you use the correct PVC solvent cement and primer for a reliable bond.
The colour difference is primarily aesthetic, allowing you to match your existing pipework. Both colours use the same UPVC material and construction. Grey is commonly associated with pressure-rated pipe systems in many regions, while White is typical in domestic plumbing — choose based on your installation's visual requirements.
Cut the pipe square, deburr the end, and dry-fit to confirm alignment. Apply UPVC primer to both the pipe end and socket, then apply solvent cement evenly. Push the pipe firmly into the socket with a slight twist, hold for 30 seconds, and allow to cure for at least 15 minutes before applying pressure. Always follow the cement manufacturer's cure time guidelines.
Each listing is for a single valve (qty 1). Select your preferred colour and interior diameter from the variant options above, then add the required quantity to your cart.
