PSW TRADESUPPLIERS LTD Lever Operated Isolating Valve Blue Handle 15mm Chrome+ 2 Olives

Easy to use and connect to the existing system!!!!!

Perfect. No more struggle with the screwdriver trying to turn off the valves. Good sturdy quality. Valves came with two sets of olives copper and brass so you have a choice. “Brass olives on copper, especially on hot water systems where their expansion properties are better than copper olives. Copper olives on plastic as per manfacturers regs. Copper on chrome pipe as they bite into the chrome better.” I used a little bit of Boss White on the pipes for extra piece of mind (not mandatory).

Used this to get a replacement for the plastic knob on a similar valve that had failed (the flat had worn away). The knob on this valve was identical and fitted easily

This can be turned by your fingers and so is quicker to isolate than the screwdriver type of valve.

Used for cold water

Nothing wrong with the product, as far as I can see, but --(1) The page says "comes with 2 extra olives"; I ordered two valves so ought to have received 4 spare olives.(2) The fool that packed mine damaged one of the olives (or didn't notice that it had been damaged); fortunately I had a few spares in the box.We used to lead the World in engineering; why, in the name of Hades, can we not supply anything "A1 at Lloyd's" any more?!ΠΞ

Bought valve as part of a project to replace kitchen sink. Other valves and fittings had been purchase but required this valve to complete assembly for a space restricted area in sink unit.

Arrived quickly, really easy to install and use. Very good value
