ABSTRACT:
Three-piece stop valves, in both angle and straight-through forms, are disclosed comprising a valve body, resilient control sleeve and handle, with no separate fasteners or sealing elements being required. The handle and control sleeve are retained within the valve body by resilient formations on the handle which snap into a retaining groove on the valve body. Inlet line pressure resiliently biases the side walls of the control sleeve into sealing engagement with the valve bore to prevent leakage.
