Good product. Fit well for what I needed it for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well made product
*by L***C on July 31, 2023*

I've used two off these on my property to seal the water shut-off valve access. So for this application it won't see any pressure at all. But it does keep out rainwater and critters. It is made well and makes a tight, confident seal when tightened.
