Angle Stops
Most often used for connecting wall stub outs to supply lines for a fixture, such as a toilet or faucet, an angle stop provides an easy way to turn off the water to just that fixture instead of the entire house.

Straight Stops
Pipe stub outs extending from the floor typically utilize straight stops for connecting to supply lines. Having a stop near a fixture allows the water to be turned off for just that fixture without disrupting the water flow to the rest of a home or business.

Three Way Stops
Designed to allow the shutoff of multiple fixtures, three way valves are commonly used in the residential kitchen to allow isolation of a faucet and a dishwasher or a faucet and a filter, in the case of repair or replacement. Three way valves with one handle turn off the water at the point of entry, while dual handle shutoffs are typically plumbed to turn off the water at the outlets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. "What does compression style (angle stop or straight stop) mean?"
A. The compression style in this case is referring to the way the water is shut off when the valve is closed. Please do not confuse this with the inlet or outlet size which can also be referred to as "compression". The handle is attached to a stem with a rubber washer on the other end. As the handle is turned to close the valve (clockwise), the rubber washer is forced (compressed) against the "seat" which is the metal opening of the waterway.

Q. "How do I know if I need 1/2" Fip inlet or 5/8" o.d. inlet angle stops?"
A. Angle or straight stops have an inlet that is either 1/2" fip (female iron pipe) or 5/8" o.d. copper compression. The 1/2" fip stops are for attaching to threaded pipe nipples. The copper compression fittings are designed to attach to the smooth outside surface of copper pipe.

Q. "Some of the outlet sizes are shown as 1/4" O.D. or 3/8" O.D. or 1/2" O.D. compression nut w/sleeve. Is this measurement referring to the outside diameter of the compression nut?"
A. No, it is not. Copper compression fitting sizes are measured and sized according to the outside diameter (O.D.) of the copper tubing or copper pipe for which they will be used.

Q. "Why do you offer lead free angle and straight stops?"
A. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates the amount of lead in drinking water under guidelines established in the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act (passed in 1974; amended in 1988 and 1996). This Act defines "lead-free" as not more than 8% lead in pipes and fixture fittings. PLEASE NOTE: Use of the term "lead-free" varies between the new legislation in CA (AB 1953) and VT (S.152), and in the current Federal Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. In the new legislation for CA and VT only, starting in 2010, it will mean 0.25% or less (weighted average).
