1. Features of Durable Angle Valve
Durable angle valve is a widely used control valve in kitchen and bathroom water supply systems. It is mainly made of high-strength brass, stainless steel, or metal materials with wear-resistant coatings. These valves are designed for long-term use, capable of withstanding high-frequency operation, high water pressure, and high temperatures. Especially in environments with strong water pressure, durable angle valves ensure a tight connection between the valve and the pipe, preventing water leakage.
2. Preparation Before Installation
- Check the valve and accessories: Ensure the durable angle valve is intact and verify that the interface size matches the water pipe and appliance.
- Shut off the water source: Before installation, be sure to turn off the main water supply to prevent leaks.
- Prepare tools: Wrench, PTFE tape, screwdriver, and other common tools.
3. Installation Steps
- Clean the interface: Remove any dirt or debris from the pipe interface to ensure a smooth surface.
- Wrap PTFE tape: Evenly wrap PTFE tape around the valve’s threaded interface to enhance sealing.
- Connect the angle valve: Align the durable angle valve with the wall pipe interface, screw it in clockwise, and use a wrench to tighten it — but do not overtighten.
- Connect appliances: Attach the other end to the faucet, toilet inlet pipe, or other appliances, ensuring the threads fit securely.
- Test the water supply: Turn on the main water supply and slowly rotate the valve handle. Check for leaks at the interface. If there is any leakage, re-tighten the threads or add more PTFE tape.
4. Maintenance
If the durable angle valve becomes stuck or starts dripping, follow these maintenance steps:
- Turn off the water source: Always shut off the water supply before maintenance.
- Disassemble and inspect: Remove the handle of the durable angle valve and check if the valve core or sealing ring is damaged.
- Replace parts: If parts are aged or broken, replace them with new valve cores or seals.
- Reinstall: Follow the installation steps to reassemble the durable angle valve.
