A valve assembly for use in a filter device is disclosed herein.

The face plate is provided with a cylindrical opening for receiving the valve stem, and a plurality of compressible fingers with gripping tabs about the distal end thereof which engage with the circumferential groove when the stem is inserted into the opening to create a fixed, rotatable relationship with the valve housing. The face plate also includes a locking tab which engages a recess in the housing to lock the face plate to the housing.
