¾" Brass Spring Check Valve — Non-Return Valve
Instant Backflow Protection — Spring-Loaded, Brass-Built, Ready to Install
The ¾" Brass Spring Check Valve is a premium-grade non-return valve that uses a spring-loaded poppet mechanism to prevent backflow instantly — even at low flow rates. Unlike swing check valves, the internal spring ensures the valve closes immediately when forward pressure drops, making it ideal for pump protection and vertical pipe installations. This pack includes 2 valves and PTFE thread seal tape for a complete, ready-to-install solution.
Key Features
- Size: ¾ inch — embossed on body with flow direction arrow for correct installation
- Body Material: Solid brass — heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant, safe for potable water

Spring vs Swing — Why Spring Wins
A spring-loaded check valve closes faster and more reliably than a swing disc valve, especially in low-flow or vertical pipe applications. The spring ensures positive shut-off regardless of pipe orientation — horizontal, vertical, or angled — making it the preferred choice for pump discharge lines and borehole installations.
Common Applications
- Pump discharge lines — prevents water hammer and pump damage
- Borehole and submersible pump installations
- Domestic and commercial water supply systems
- Boiler feed and hot water heating systems
- Irrigation and garden water supply lines
- Vertical pipe runs where swing valves are unreliable
