ABSTRACT:
A shut-off valve assembly includes a housing which has a spherical plug arranged in a chamber. The housing has an internal thread into which a support element for a sealing member is screwed. On the outer end face of the support element is supported a flange bushing by means of a retaining nut. The pitches of the internal thread and of an external thread for the retaining nut are directed in opposite directions, so that the support element cannot be loosened when the retaining nut is unscrewed.
