Description
The self-closing tap is a self closing water supply valve used in conjunction with community stand posts.
- Easily operated by children and the elderly.
- Robust construction withstands rigorous use and ferrous parts are plated to resist corrosion.
How it works:
The water flows when the body of the valve is moved into the raised position, lifting the sealing washer off the seat.
A combination of water pressure and the weight of the valve body closes the valve automatically when the body is released. The only moving part is the spindle sliding inside the guiding bush. There is no gland packing, no cones or moving screw threads to wear out.
