3/4-Inch Brass Hose Bibb Vacuum Breaker with Washers and Thread Tape in 1-, 2-, 4- or 6-Packs - LitOrange
3/4-Inch Brass Hose Bibb Vacuum Breaker with Washers and Thread Tape in 1-, 2-, 4- or 6-Packs - LitOrange
A hose bibb vacuum breaker adds an anti-siphon valve between an outdoor faucet and garden hose to help stop water from flowing backward into the supply. LitOrange uses a brass body with a 3/4-inch female GHT inlet and matching male GHT outlet, fitting many standard hose bibbs, sillcocks, garden spigots, hydrants and RV water connections. A break-off screw supports permanent attachment where appropriate.
Choose one, two, four or six vacuum breakers. The documented two-pack includes two valves, two washers and approximately 350 inches of thread tape. Maximum stated operating limits are 125 PSI and 180°F / 82°C. A drain hole releases retained water when pressure drops and may spray during shutoff, so keep your body and clothing clear. Confirm local plumbing-code requirements, flow direction and thread condition before installation, and replace worn washers if the connection leaks.
