PRODUCT CATEGORIES DESCRIPTION
A bibcock, also known as a hose bib or sillcock, is a type of valve used for controlling the flow of water in plumbing systems. It is typically mounted on the exterior of a building and is designed to provide a convenient point for connecting a garden hose or other water source.
The bibcock operates by using a valve mechanism to control the flow of water. When the valve is open, water flows freely through the bibcock and out through the connected hose. When the valve is closed, the water flow is stopped, allowing for easy maintenance or repairs to the plumbing system.
Bibcocks are available in a variety of sizes and materials, with brass and chrome-plated brass being common choices due to their durability and resistance to corrosion. Some bibcocks also feature a built-in backflow preventer, which helps to ensure that contaminated water does not flow back into the main water supply.
Bibcocks typically feature a threaded connection, which allows for easy attachment of a garden hose or other water source. They are commonly used in outdoor applications, such as watering plants, washing cars, or filling pools. Bibcocks are also frequently used in industrial and commercial settings, where they provide a convenient way to control the flow of water for various applications.
The most common sizes for bibcocks include 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, and 1 inch, although other sizes may be available depending on the manufacturer. When selecting a bibcock, it is important to consider the intended application and the specific requirements of the plumbing system to ensure that the correct size and type of valve is selected.
