Rain Bird PVC valve fitting 1301-210 - 2-way manifold - 1-inch M

2-outlet manifold for irrigation valves

The Rain Bird RB1301-210 is a compact PVC manifold designed to connect two irrigation valves. Its two 1-inch male connections allow compatible valves with 1-inch female threads to be connected directly, making it ideal for creating a clean two-zone valve assembly inside a valve box.

As part of the modular Rain Bird PVC manifold system, the RB1301-210 can be combined with additional compatible components for a compact and organised irrigation installation.

Telescoping design for easy valve replacement

A major advantage is the telescoping Rain Bird manifold system. It allows irrigation valves with different installation lengths to be replaced without cutting pipe or adding new components.

The appropriate connections can be loosened during servicing. The telescoping design provides the necessary installation space to remove an existing valve or install a replacement. The connections can then be hand tightened again.

Easy installation with O-ring seals

Large integrated O-rings provide reliable sealing between the manifold components. Rain Bird designed the system for simple hand-tightened assembly. No additional Teflon tape is required on the O-ring-sealed system connections.

This design also simplifies future maintenance because valves and manifold components can be disconnected and reassembled without cutting permanently joined pipework.

For valves with 1-inch female threads

The RB1301-210 belongs to the Rain Bird RB1300 Series with male valve connections. Its two 1-inch male connections are designed for compatible irrigation valves with 1-inch female threads.

This makes the manifold suitable for creating a compact two-zone valve assembly with compatible 1-inch irrigation valves.

Frequently asked questions about the Rain Bird RB1301-210

How many irrigation valves can be connected?

The RB1301-210 provides two valve connections and is designed to create an irrigation manifold with two valves or two separate watering zones.

Which irrigation valves are compatible?

The two valve outlets have 1-inch male threads and are designed for compatible irrigation valves with 1-inch female connections.

How does the telescoping system simplify valve replacement?

The appropriate connections can be loosened during servicing and the telescoping system provides the necessary installation space to remove or install a valve. Rain Bird specifically states that valves with different installation lengths can be replaced without cutting pipe or adding new parts.

Do I need to cut the pipe when replacing a valve?

No. The telescoping manifold system is specifically designed to allow compatible valves to be replaced without cutting the existing pipework or rebuilding the complete manifold.

Is Teflon tape required?

No additional Teflon tape is required on the O-ring-sealed manifold connections. Large O-rings provide the seal between the system components.

Can the manifold system be expanded?

Yes. The Rain Bird PVC manifold system is modular and can be combined with additional compatible manifolds and connection components to create customised valve assemblies.
