Valve - H Adaptor Right Hand (picture is left hand)
Features
Dive Rite valves are chrome-plated brass for rugged protection and
durability. Double o-ring seals provide redundancy as well as better
shock absorption. Ribbed rubber handwheels are tough, yet easy to open
and close. The right valve paired with the left can be used for
independent doubles, a doubles manifold, sidemount, and rebreather
cylinders. The valve is modular so divers can use them independently on
single tanks, put them together to form an H-valve, or use an isolation
bar to build a manifold for double tanks. All Dive Rite valves come
standard with 3500 psi (242 bar) working pressure relief disks, built
with oxygen compatible o-rings and lubricants, and are Nitrox ready up
to 40-percent.
All Dive Rite valves are easily converted between DIN and yoke by
using an included DIN to yoke insert. The insert is installed and
removed with an 8mm hex key.

Right valves versus left valves seems to have a lot of divers confused.
Training agencies coined the term right “hand” valve, which was meant to
imply a valve that can be reached with the right hand when a diver
reaches behind their head with the tank on the back. A “left hand” valve
was deemed the opposite. Because all Dive Rite valves are modular, we
call all valves with a reverse thread on the crossbar plug a “left
valve.” This is easily identifiable by a notch on the plug. The valves
with plugs that are not-notched are “right valves.” Most people find it
easier just to remember that when facing a Dive Rite valve, if the hand
wheel is on the left it is a left valve and if the hand wheel is on the
right it is a right valve.
