ABSTRACT:
A valve mounting device holds a valve in a fixed position and prevents rotation of the valve during operation of the valve handle. The device includes a tubular sleeve dimensioned to receive a valve body and in one embodiment has a notch for receiving a valve supply tube exit typical in angle stop valves. The sleeve is affixed to a guide tube which bends the flexible pipe through a predetermined arc for engaging the valve and holding the sleeve end valve in position. The guide tube is affixed to a rigid structure such as a wall or partition member thereby holding the valve and pipe in a rigid position. Escutcheon plates are adapted to provide support to the guide tube and sleeve.
