No, a 1/2-inch MPT residential-size water hammer arrestor will not effectively or safely work on a 2-inch commercial irrigation line. A 2-inch irrigation line moves a massive volume of water at high velocity compared to a 1/2-inch residential supply pipe.
A tiny 1/2-inch arrestor has a minuscule fluid capacity and cannot absorb the large kinetic energy wave generated when a 2-inch valve shuts
