Guide to Quarter Turn Angle Shut Off Valve
Quarter-turn angle shut-off valves offer a simple and effective way to control water flow with just a quarter-turn of the handle. These valves use a ball valve mechanism, making them durable and resistant to blockages, ideal for hard water areas. Made from materials like brass and stainless steel, they ensure longevity but cannot be repaired once they leak, requiring replacement. Despite this, their ease of use and quick shut-off capability make them a preferred choice in water treatment and the oil and gas industries, although rapid closure can sometimes cause hydraulic shock in pipes.
