Introduction to Brass Angle Valve
The brass angle valve produced by Chinese faucet factories is made of high-quality brass, offering excellent corrosion, heat, and oxidation resistance. This brass angle valve is widely used in both residential and commercial facilities, controlling water flow direction and volume, and preventing water rust and scale buildup. It is commonly installed for water inlet control in kitchens, bathrooms, and toilets.
Installation Steps
- Prepare Tools and Materials:
- brass angle valve
- Pipe wrench or adjustable spanner
- PTFE tape (plumber’s tape)
- Anti-rust gaskets
- Shut Off Water Supply:
Ensure the main water valve is turned off and drain any remaining water from the pipes. - Connect the Pipeline:
- Attach the inlet of the brass angle valve to the main water pipe, ensuring the joint is clean and free of debris.
- Wrap PTFE tape around the threaded section 3-5 times to enhance the seal.
- Tighten the connection gradually, ensuring it is firm and secure.
- Connect the Device:
- Attach the outlet to the target device (such as kitchen faucets or bathroom showers).
- Again, use PTFE tape on the threaded joints to prevent leaks and confirm a watertight seal.
- Test the Valve:
- Slowly turn on the main water supply and test the brass angle valve to check for smooth water flow.
- Inspect all connection points for leaks; if any leaks are found, turn off the water and reinforce the fittings.
Maintenance Tips
- Regular Inspection: Check the brass angle valve connections at least every three months to ensure there are no loose joints.
- Cleaning: Use a soft cloth to wipe the valve surface to prevent limescale buildup, which could affect both appearance and functionality.
- Lubricate the Knobs: If the valve switches become stiff, apply a small amount of lubricant to the knobs to restore smooth operation.
Conclusion
With years of expertise and advanced manufacturing techniques, Chinese faucet factories produce brass angle valves known for their durability and practicality. Whether for home renovations or commercial plumbing systems, our brass angle valves are a reliable solution for all your water flow control needs.
