Angle service valve SCHELL 1/2" with butterfly handle, chrome finish (model 034050699)

The SCHELL 1/2" angle service valve with butterfly handle and chrome finish is a compact shut-off valve designed for use in residential and commercial plumbing systems. Its 1/2" threaded connection and angled body permit installation at supply lines to isolate fixtures, enable maintenance and control water flow. The chrome surface improves corrosion resistance and simplifies cleaning, while the butterfly (wing) handle provides a clear visual and tactile control point for manual operation.

Advantages

This angle service valve offers straightforward manual operation through its butterfly handle and a compact angled design that fits into tight installation spaces. The chrome finish adds durability against moisture and mineral deposits and makes the valve easier to wipe clean. The valve’s construction is intended for reliable shut-off of a single supply line, facilitating maintenance and replacement of downstream fixtures without interrupting the entire system.

Suitable for

• Isolating individual fixtures such as faucets, toilets and dishwashers
• Service and maintenance work on branch supply lines
• Control of cold and hot water flow in residential and small commercial installations
• Replacement or retrofit projects where compact angled valves are required

Key specifications

• Connection size: 1/2" threaded inlet/outlet suitable for standard plumbing fittings
• Valve type: angle service/shut-off valve for single-line isolation
• Handle: butterfly (wing) style for manual on/off control
• Finish: chrome-plated surface for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning
• Body orientation: angled design to enable compact installation near walls or behind fixtures

How to use

Install the valve in the supply branch using appropriate sealing methods and compatible fittings for a 1/2" connection. Ensure the system is depressurized and drained before fitting. Turn the butterfly handle clockwise to close the valve and stop water flow, and counterclockwise to open. Operate the handle with moderate force; the design is intended for manual use rather than frequent automated cycling. After installation, check for leaks at threaded joints and tighten connections as needed.

Usage recommendations

Use this valve for isolating single fixtures during maintenance and repairs; avoid exposing the chrome finish to aggressive chemical cleaners. Periodically operate the butterfly handle to prevent stiffness and inspect threaded connections for signs of leakage. If used in regions with hard water, occasional descaling of the external surface and inspection of internal seals will help maintain reliable operation.
