Dramm - OneTouch and Touch N Flow PRO Watering Valves

Brand: Dramm

OneTouch and Touch N Flow PRO Watering Valves

Three hand watering valves you work without letting go of the wand. Two of them are OneTouch valves, controlled with the thumb and adjustable from off to full flow and anywhere in between. The third is the Touch N Flow PRO, which is not a thumb valve at all - it is a squeeze lever trigger valve, which is why its flow figure and its feel are different. All three sit inline between the hose and a water breaker.

Pick by flow first, then by how your crew likes to hold a valve. OneTouch - Medium 8 GPM runs 8 gpm at 40 psi, enough to drive the low and medium flow Dramm breakers, and its body is rubber over molded on die cast zinc with machined brass male threads. OneTouch - High Flow doubles that to 16 gpm at 40 psi for the high flow heads such as the Screen-Aire or a brass rose, and Dramm measures it at only about a third of an ounce heavier than the standard OneTouch, so the extra capacity costs almost nothing to carry all day. Touch N Flow PRO - Lever sits between them at 11 gpm maximum at 40 psi and is the choice when operators prefer a trigger to a thumb slide; Dramm's own durability testing rates it slightly below their 300 brass and aluminum valves, so it trades a little service life for the trigger action.

Key Features

• Thumb tip control on the OneTouch adjusts from off to full flow without regripping the wand
• OneTouch - High Flow doubles capacity to 16 gpm at 40 psi for about a third of an ounce more weight
• OneTouch - Medium 8 GPM is rubber over molded on die cast zinc with machined brass male threads
• Touch N Flow PRO gives crews a squeeze trigger instead of a thumb slide, at 11 gpm maximum
• Enough flow to feed Dramm water breakers directly - 8 gpm for the low flow heads, 16 gpm for the high flow ones
• All three mount inline between hose and nozzle, so they work with Dramm water breakers and wands

Ideal Applications

• Daily hand watering where the operator needs on and off at the wand
• Feeding low flow heads such as the 170 and 480 breakers with the 8 gpm OneTouch
• Feeding high flow heads such as the Screen-Aire or a brass rose with the 16 gpm OneTouch
• Crews that prefer a trigger action to a thumb slide
• Retail and interiorscape watering where flow control matters more than volume
• Reducing wasted water between plants by shutting off at the hand rather than the bib

For a hose end shut-off instead of an in-hand valve, see the Hose Shut-Off Valve listing; the High Flow Shut-Off Valve adds twin and quad outlet manifolds.
