12V DC 3625PSI Durable Hydraulic Solenoid Selector Diverter Valve 13GPM 6 Port Hydraulic Solenoid Diverter/Selector Valve3-plug 6-Port Black+Red

works as should

The valve is indeed a 12VDC six port selector, however the ad copy implies it has SAE-10 O ring ports. It actually has 1/2"-BSPP (British Parallel Pipe) ports. In order to apply the valve to a tractor with North American JIC or ORFS fittings required purchasing six 1/2"-BSPP to ORFS-06 (3/8" O Ring Face Seal) adapter fittings at a cost of $72, which is over half the cost of the valve. If the valve actually had SAE-10 ports, the adapters would have cost about $18. Of course there was no time to return the valve without tying up the customer's tractor. It does anger me as I think of a DIY person trying to connect this thing. It's sad that we have arrived at a point where it's almost expected that what we order may not be what we receive.

The description of the valve does not give accurate port size information. The original ad showed -10 oil port size the valve I received has 1/2" NPTF pipe thread ports

bought this and a joystick handle with a few hydraulic hoses and a bit of wiring its working grate

First valve arrived, took the time to test it out before installing, the solenoid appeared to move as expected testing it with air. The primary circuit worked fine, but when I tried to use the alternate circuit with hydraulic pressure, didn't work. Requested replacement thru Amazon. They shipped a second valve, which was completely different. First one was ORB which I had the right fittings for, but second one was not. Not even machined correctly. Also all the ports were different. Had to basically install valve upside down to get things to match up with ports. Couldn't test valve because it leaked so badly. Gave up and shipped both POS back to supplier and got my credit. Wished mine worked because the one I got from Summit hydraulics was twice the price. Hoping to test that one soon once a few more fittings/adaptors arrive. This valve is #10 ORB and the summit one is #8.....

Don't buy unless you have or are going to use BSPP (British Standard Parallel Pipe). I should have know, ad stated threads are SAE10 (3/4-16 threads),, thread size is incorrect. SAE 10 has 7/8-14 threads, SAE 8 has 3/4-16 thread size. This product measured 14 thread per inch with an ID of 0.743 inches, which matches BSPP thread 1/2 (-8) size of 14threads per inch with an ID of 0.75in. I brought this to their attention, ad is still incorrect.

I spent over $90 on fittings for 2 of these valves and they aren’t even the right threads. Once I got the right fittings and hooked them up, the solenoids wouldn’t work. They are worthless if they won’t divert the flow. Wasted $300
