Getting Started with the Slip-Joint Angle-Stop Valve
Exact flow management begins with choosing the proper shutoff valve. The angle stop isolates single fixtures without interrupting the main supply. Ideal for fixing faucets or upgrading toilets.
Angled configuration conserves room compared to straight stops. BrassCraft’s multi-turn knob allows precise flow tuning. Kingston Brass uses a stainless steel ball to resist seizing—ideal for hard water areas.

- Durable Build: Corrosion-resistant brass body with 1/2″ FIP inlet (12-14 NPT threads).
- Flexible Outlet: Supports supply tubes from 7/16″ to 1/2″.
Rated for 40°–160°F, it handles hot and cold water with ease. Backed by Kingston Brass’ one-month money-back guarantee, it’s a no-risk improvement for home projects.
