The body of this heavy-duty splitter is precision-machined from forged, lead-free brass for exceptional durability and long-term performance.
The interior ball is made from durable chrome-plated brass. The easy-grab ON/OFF flow control lever is formed from a high-impact resin material, and the O-ring washer in the female fitting is made from ultra-strong polyurethane material.
All backed by our 10-Year No-Leak, No-Fail Guarantee.
Oversized finger grips on the female fitting make it easy to achieve a secure, water-tight connection with the durable O-ring washer.
The 1/4-turn “stay-put” flow control levers allow for precise adjustment and hold their position during use.
Ultra-durable and maintenance-free internal Teflon® seals keep the ball valves operating smoothly and leak-free for over ten years, guaranteed.
This ELEY-exclusive design features a third expandable port for added versatility.
Attach a hose, shut-off valve, or additional splitter to expand your system. To expand, remove the bottom brass cap and thread on the additional item. The bottom third port has no flow-control valve and will be "constant flow." However, if desired, the ELEY straight shut-off valve (Item #1117) can be added to create a 3rd flow-control valve.
The removable brass cap can be used to cap any garden hose or watering device with male 3/4" garden hose threads.
Designed with standard 3/4-inch garden hose threads (GHT), this splitter is compatible with any standard hose or accessory.
Add ELEY quick-connectors to each port for faster, more convenient connections—eliminating the need to thread and unthread hoses.
For best performance, avoid pairing brass components with aluminum fittings, as this can lead to galvanic corrosion over time.

When fully open, the two upper interior ball valves create an opening that is 14mm in diameter, (0.55 inches), or just over 1/2" Inside Diameter.
The ID of the bottom capped port is 5/8-inches (15.875 mm)
The valve measures 3-5/16 inches high × 5-3/16 inches wide × 2-5/16 inches deep.
Yes. Any ball valve that is equipped with standard garden hose threads can be added to the bottom port so as to allow for on, off or adjustable flow through the bottom 3rd port. Simply remove the brass cap on the bottom port and replace it with a ball valve of your choosing. We would recommend considering one of the two ELEY in-line ball valves, either our #1116 ball valve with a swivel fitting, (first image) or our #1117 standard ball valve, (second image).
No. The ELEY 2-way Y-valves are built for outdoor, intermittent use, not for constant pressure or indoor plumbing. They are rated to 165 °F (74 °C) and 120 PSI (8.3 bar). Continuous pressure can wear out seals and cause leaks—so always shut off the faucet and relieve pressure when not in use.
Yes. The ELEY 2-way Y-valve splitter uses a small PTFE (Teflon®) seal inside the valve assembly to support smooth operation and leak-resistant performance. The seal has limited contact with water as it passes through the valve.
The ELEY 2-way Y-valve splitter is manufactured using high-quality materials selected for durability, performance, and drinking water contact.
No, it is not intended for indoor use. Outdoor use only.
We suggest removing all watering tool attachments from the spigot before temperatures drop below freezing, as water can get trapped inside the valve body when the valve is fully open or fully closed. However, if you're going to leave it attached to the spigot, be sure to do the following:

"The splitter is best one I've used. The pieces you get at the big box stores are cheap, corrode quickly and the levers lock up. This unit is bigger than most and the levers move smoothly. Both my wife and I are thrilled that we spent money on a quality splitter."
"The Eley garden hose 2-way splitter is a quality made product. It is solid brass with no aluminum parts that can fuse over time to your outdoor brass faucets or brass end water hose connectors. It is heavy duty and works very well. The Eley brand is great! The ordering process was easy. My order was received well packaged and on time as scheduled."
"We bought two of these on for the front and one for the rear and they work great. First impression was quality build and high end material, almost industrial and able to stand up to the wear and tear of Mother Nature. Very easy to install and use and water through put is fantastic! Highly rate these for anyone to use, definitely worth the price."
"It’s so nice to have a 2-way splitter that I don’t have to worry about it leaking after a couple of months of use. These splitters are heavy weight and solid. Just the feel of the splitters when I unboxed them gave me confidence that I had finally found a splitter that would last for years. Keep up the great work Eley!"
"The 2-way splitter was a well engineered and beautifully machined piece and perfect for its job at my boat dock. I needed two valved outlets for dedicated water purposes and a third open outlet with a secure cap for boat maintenance workers. . . . pricy but worth the money for something that is constantly exposed to a harsh marine environment."
"I love that the outlets come off at an angle instead of straight down. So much easier to connect hoses. High quality piece of goods too. No doubt about it."
"Love this fitting and it works perfectly. Tremendous quality."
"Superb quality! went through three plastic 2-way Splitters before i was told about this product. Definitely worth the price. thank you!"
"I needed a splitter to feed my hose and my drip system. I felt this was better than the store bought product as it was made of brass and used for a vegi garden."
"The review title says it ll. If you want the best it's always Eley"
