Brand: Rain Bird | SKU: SH1

Product Overview

SH1 joins a hose to a quick-coupling valve key with a nominal 1-inch male pipe-thread outlet. The hose end remains 3/4-inch male hose thread, making the two different connections the first details to check when selecting this swivel.

Dimensions

Leave room for the elbow and connected hose to move around the key. The stated inch sizes identify the connections and should not be used as overall swivel dimensions.

Compatibility & Installation Notes

Match the key’s outlet thread before installation and check that the hose coupling fits the male hose-thread end. A 1-inch female pipe connection does not mean both ends accept 1-inch pipe fittings. Relieve pressure before removing equipment, check for leaks after connection and keep non-potable-water identification visible where required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the two SH1 connection sizes?

SH1 has nominal 1-inch female NPT at the key and 3/4-inch male hose thread at the hose outlet.

How does SH1 differ from SH0?

SH1 has a 1-inch female pipe connection; SH0 has a 3/4-inch female pipe connection. Both use a 3/4-inch male hose-thread outlet.

Does the swivel include a quick-coupling valve key?

No. Select the matching key separately and verify its outlet connection before ordering.

Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?

SH1 is the size transition to choose when the key has a 1-inch male NPT outlet and the hose needs a 3/4-inch male hose-thread connection. Its up-to-360-degree swivel movement helps the hose follow your direction of travel, while the distinct inlet size separates it from the smaller SH0.
