Need to replace that old, crusty shut-off valve under your sink or behind your toilet? This Kingston Brass angle stop valve is a quality replacement. It's made from solid brass construction, which is corrosion-resistant and built to last. The finish is a shiny polished chrome that looks clean and professional. It's an 'angle stop,' meaning the outlet comes out at a 90-degree angle from the inlet, which saves space in tight spots. The inlet (where it connects to your water supply pipe) is 1/2 inch Female Iron Pipe (FIP) thread. The outlet (where you connect your supply line to the faucet or toilet) is a 3/8 inch Outside Diameter (OD) compression fitting – that's the standard size for many faucet supply lines. It has an easy-to-use lever handle for turning the water on and off quickly. Installing a reliable valve like this is a good piece of mind to prevent leaks at the source. A solid, no-leak plumbing essential for any DIYer or professional.
