Abstract
An under-fixture valve comprises an elongated body having an outer diameter corresponding to the pipes normally connected to an outlet water pipe so that the valve body may be threaded to the outlet water pipe and project from a wall structure. The wall structure itself can then be completed and finished with a minimum of interference with the valve body, the valve being closed while work on the wall is completed so that the main water supply may be left on. An integrally molded plastic valve member defines a chamber serving as a valve seat for a valve head adapted to be inserted into a side opening in the valve member, the device when assembled having no laterally projecting portions.
