Section C / Why we list it this way
A product page that answers the first question
Torvani Pipe & Valve Supplies started from a simple annoyance: product pages for plumbing parts that hide the one thing you need. A ball valve listing that does not say whether the ends are male or female, or a fitting kit that does not say how it is organized, costs a person a second trip to the store. We name the connection type and show the part from a plain angle, so the part in your hand matches the part on the screen. Sizes and other fine details are confirmed at fulfillment.

Look. The color and finish you can see in the photo: brass-colored, copper-colored, silver-tone or painted.

+What do FIP, MIP and GHT mean in your listings?
FIP is female iron pipe thread (threads on the inside), MIP is male iron pipe thread (threads on the outside) and GHT is garden hose thread. Each product name repeats the abbreviation next to the size so you can match the connection.
+Are the sizes in the names actual measurements?
Pipe sizes in our product names are nominal names used to identify the part, not measured outside diameters. Exact dimensions, materials and other fine details are confirmed at fulfillment, so contact us if you need to check a fit before ordering.
+Do I need thread tape or sealant on threaded joints?
Threaded pipe joints are commonly made up with thread seal tape or pipe thread sealant paste on the male threads. Follow the instructions for the parts you are joining. Details for each item are confirmed at fulfillment.
Section J / Contact
