中文简体A brass angle valve is a simple and reliable device that regulates the flow of water with a quarter turn. It can be operated by a handle or valve nut and is available in many different sizes to fit any plumbing system.
Using an angle stop valve is essential for preventing leaks and bursts in any plumbing line. It also provides an effective solution for a sudden shut-off in case of emergency, like when a child accidentally opens the faucet in the bathroom.
Installing an angle stop is easy with the right tools. The most common way to attach an angle stop is by clamping or crimping the ring onto the pipe. The crimping method is easier to use than the clamping, but the crimping technique requires some knowledge of the plumbing system and experience with a ring compression tool.
The other way to install an angle stop is by screwing the ring onto a pipe that has male threads. These threads can be found on iron or copper pipes, and a male adapter fitting is necessary for plastic and poly pipes.
