Des Plaines, IL: Chicago Faucets reveals a selection of heavy-duty commercial stop valves that are designed to offer a high-quality, commercial-grade, and economically priced option for commercial buildings.

Plumbing professionals and building owners looking for a heavy-duty commercial stop valve will be surprised at the affordability of STB and STC Series stops from Chicago Faucets. These stops give customers in commercial settings a robust, economical alternative to the inexpensive, builder-grade stops typically found in residential applications.

The new STB and STC Series are made from forged brass and metal parts to retain product integrity for a lifetime of reliable operation. Metal valve stems operate smoothly and feature lock shield caps with loose key handles to prevent valve tampering. The loose keys are included with every valve.

These new heavy-duty commercial stops are available with two different valve designs: a 1/4-turn ball valve that provides fast open and close operation with a very reliable, long service life; and a multi-turn compression valve that features fewer parts and can be easily serviced if necessary. All models meet and are certified to current state laws for the reduction of lead in plumbing products, as well as the 2014 federal lead reduction law.
