Its 90-degree angle design allows for efficient installation in tight spaces, ensuring a secure and leak-free operation under standard plumbing conditions.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this BENKISER angle valve lies in its robust brass construction, which offers exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion over time.

Suitable for

• Connecting washbasin faucets to the water supply
• Installing kitchen sink taps
• Residential plumbing maintenance and upgrades
• Commercial sanitary installations

When it may not be suitable

This valve is not suitable for systems requiring a connection nut, as it is designed for installations where the nut is not integrated or required. It should not be used in high-pressure industrial systems exceeding 10 Bar or in environments where temperatures exceed 90°C.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Finish: Chrome
• Connection size: 1/2 inch outer thread
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Operating temperature range: 0 to 90°C
• Maximum pressure: 10 Bar

How to use

To install the BENKISER angle valve, ensure the water supply is completely shut off before beginning. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the 1/2 inch outer thread to ensure a watertight seal. Screw the valve into the wall connection point, ensuring it is tightened securely with a suitable wrench, taking care not to overtighten and damage the chrome finish. Once installed, connect the supply hose of your faucet to the 3/8 inch outlet. Slowly turn on the water supply and check for any signs of leakage at the connection points.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size of your existing wall connection
• Ensure the absence of a nut is compatible with your specific plumbing setup
• Check that your system pressure does not exceed 10 Bar
• Confirm the required orientation for a 90-degree angle valve

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the valve for any signs of mineral buildup or leaks, especially in areas with hard water. If the valve becomes difficult to turn, ensure the system is depressurized before attempting any maintenance or replacement.
