Flower Open Stop Cock ( 20mm )

Product Description

The Flower Open Stop Cock (20mm) is a high-capacity brass control valve engineered for exposed plumbing installations that require strong water flow, dependable shut-off, and long-term durability. Constructed from premium-grade brass and finished with a superior chrome coating, it withstands corrosion, continuous water exposure, and frequent operation. Its exposed-body design allows easy access for manual control, while the signature Flower series handle ensures smooth, precise quarter-turn operation. The larger 20mm inlet diameter enhances water output, making it suitable for demanding residential and light commercial applications. A precision ceramic shut-off mechanism ensures consistent, leak-free performance.

Optimal Usage & Application Methods

This 20mm open stop cock is ideal for high-flow lines connected to geysers, large basin setups, washing equipment, main supply control points, and outdoor water outlets. Installation is straightforward—secure the threaded joints using PTFE tape for a tight, leak-resistant connection. Ensure proper alignment when mounting, as the exposed design contributes both functionally and visually. Maintenance involves periodically rotating the handle to maintain ceramic cartridge smoothness and wiping the chrome surface with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals to retain shine and prevent plating damage.
