Choosing a 2-inch NPT industrial valve usually comes down to two things: knowing exactly what the valve is supposed to do and knowing how much you're willing to pay. These two options sit at opposite ends of that trade-off. The ASCO 8215C83 spells out its specs in the title, while the Industrial Valve FNIP is listed more generically and costs less. Here's how they compare and which one deserves a spot in your line.
Quick verdict
Go with the ASCO 8215C83 if you need a normally open 2" NPT solenoid valve that runs on 120VAC and is designed for 0-25 PSI. Go with the Industrial Valve FNIP if you want to spend less on a 2" NPT valve and don't need the listing to walk you through every detail.

Where each one wins
ASCO 8215C83 wins on specification clarity. The listing tells you the size, connection, valve function, voltage, and pressure range, so you can match it to your application before buying. Industrial Valve FNIP wins on price. At $54.00, it costs $41.55 less than the ASCO, which matters if you're buying multiple valves.
Product notes
ASCO 8215C83 Solenoid Valve
The ASCO 8215C83 is the option you can match to a job without guessing. It's a 2" NPT, 2-way, normally open solenoid valve with a 120VAC coil and a 0-25 PSI pressure range. The MPN 8215C83 gives you a specific part reference, and the listing is clear about what this valve is supposed to do. The main drawback is price: this is the more expensive of the two, so you're paying for that specification certainty. If your application doesn't require a normally open solenoid valve with those exact specs, the extra cost is harder to justify. For anyone who needs that precise configuration, though, it's the safer, more direct choice.
Industrial Valve FNIP
The Industrial Valve FNIP is the money-saving alternative in this comparison. Priced lower than the ASCO, it still arrives as a new open-box unit and carries MPN 2145405, so there's a part number you can use when ordering. The title is general, so this is a better fit when you already know what your line needs and just want a 2" NPT valve at a lower price. If you're replacing multiple valves, the lower price per unit can add up quickly. This is a straightforward choice for price-focused buyers.
Final choice by use case
- Choose the ASCO 8215C83 when you need a 2" NPT normally open solenoid valve with a 120VAC coil and a 0-25 PSI range. The listing gives you all the key specs up front.
- Choose the Industrial Valve FNIP when you need a 2" NPT industrial valve and want the lower price. It's the money-saving option for buyers who already have their application figured out.
