Key Features

Quarter-turn shut-off valve for quick water isolation
Brass construction with double O-rings for leak-free seal
Universal fit for standard 3/4-inch garden hose threads
Pressure gauge to detect residual pressure before disassembly

Target Users: Homeowners and DIYers in residential settings with wall-mounted spigots lacking isolation valves, especially in houses with slab foundations or no crawlspace.
