Angle cock KRAFT 3/4

Product Description

An angle cock, also known as an angle valve or angle stop, is a plumbing fixture with a right-angle (90-degree) bend that controls the flow of water to a fixture by providing an inlet and an outlet positioned at a 90-degree angle to each other. It allows users to shut off water to a specific appliance, such as a toilet or sink, for maintenance without affecting the entire home's water supply. Key Characteristics: L-shaped Design: The distinctive "angle" refers to the valve's L-shaped body, which includes an inlet from the water pipe and an outlet that directs water to a faucet, toilet, or other fixture. Manual Operation: Angle cocks are operated by a lever or wheel, which is turned to open or close the valve, allowing or blocking the flow of water. Purpose: Its primary function is to regulate and stop water flow to a specific plumbing fixture. Common Uses: They are commonly used in kitchens and bathrooms to control water to sinks, toilets, and health faucets.
