The popular store most of shop at ..S has not had ball valves in stock lately and i want to know if anyone has purchased any other brands Sch 80 from that next day prime store?
They have a brand Boltigen wondering if anyone has used this one or recommend another that would be just as reliable. Not interested in the big box ball valves as those IMO don't work well and get stuck. TIA

what's it being used for? Perhaps consider a gate valve for better control/less likelihood of sticking?

I want to build a manifold for reactors etc. The gate valve would probably be used for the drain.

Did you try a Plumbing Supply? They may not have a 1/2” in stock, but can usually pull it from their warehouse for a next day pickup. BTW, I Recommend the Bluefin Brand, in a threaded valve.

I used around 20 of the AIPOR ball valves off Amazon on my most recent build. Saved money over the big box store and I am still really happy with them
