BALL VALVE

ball valve, plumbing

Description: This is a pipelike mechanism with an angled handle.

Buying information: The ball valve works like a washerless faucet in that a Teflon seated, stainless steel ball inside the valve covers or uncovers the water opening. It's easy to see, from the position of the handle, whether the valve is off or on.
