It is listed as 2 inch socket by threaded with EPDM sealing. This valve installs on return or feature plumbing where water needs to flow one direction only.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Part Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Backflow can drain lines, introduce air, and cause equipment issues after shutdown. A working check valve helps protect heaters, chlorinators, and elevated plumbing runs from reverse flow. When a check valve fails, you may see water draining back, loss of prime, or unwanted mixing between lines. Replacing the correct size restores predictable flow control.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: TC10200STE\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePVC true check valve\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConnection: 2 inch socket x threaded\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSeal material listed: EPDM\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUsed to prevent backflow in pool plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation and Fitment Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Install in the correct flow direction and allow proper cure time if solvent welding is required.
