The ODSUPPLIES Brass Thread Stopcock is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable water flow regulation in mains water systems. This robust component excels at providing a secure, precise shut-off for standard 1-inch pipework, ensuring long-term durability in plumbing installations. While its all-brass construction offers superior strength, users should ensure they have the proper tools for a tight, leak-proof threaded installation.

Yes, the brass construction is designed to withstand standard hot and cold water temperatures in domestic plumbing.
The stopcock uses standard threaded connections, so you should ensure you have the appropriate connectors or fittings compatible with your specific pipe material.
No, this product is intended strictly for water supply systems and should not be used for gas piping.
The unit is manufactured from high-quality, durable brass.
No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 1-inch pipework.
It is recommended to cycle the valve open and closed once or twice a year to ensure it remains functional in the event of an emergency.
Unscrew the fitting, inspect the threads for damage, re-apply a fresh layer of PTFE tape, and tighten securely.
The valve may have mineral deposits. Flush the line or apply a small amount of food-safe plumbing lubricant to the stem.
Check that the internal washer is properly seated or if debris is trapped within the valve body preventing a full seal.
To install this stopcock, ensure your pipework is cut square and properly threaded to match the 1-inch connection. Apply appropriate plumber’s tape (PTFE tape) to the threads to ensure a leak-proof seal. Tighten using an adjustable wrench, taking care not to overtighten and crack the pipe or damage the brass threads. For maintenance, periodically turn the handle fully open and closed every few months to prevent mineral build-up and ensure the internal mechanism remains free-moving.
