V&G Compression Stopcock 15/22/28mm | VG15SC VG22SC VG28SC

Description

The V&G brass compression stopcock is a dependable isolating valve for water and heating systems, supplied in three sizes to suit common copper pipework: VG15SC (15 mm), VG22SC (22 mm) and VG28SC (28 mm).

Built from corrosion-resistant brass with compression ends to EN 1254, it fits without heat or solder, so installation and later removal are quick and straightforward. It carries WRAS approval for potable water use, is rated for -20°C to 120°C, and suits domestic, commercial and industrial installations. Whether you are fitting a new water supply shut-off or isolating a branch for maintenance, one range covers every common pipe size.

Range pressure rating

Water systems only

Use this stopcock on water and heating pipework only, never on gas or fuel lines. Installations connected to the mains supply must comply with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 (or the Scottish Water Byelaws) and should be carried out by a competent installer.

Fit without heat

Compression ends mean no blowtorch, no solder and no flux. That makes the V&G stopcock a practical choice where hot work is restricted, and it can be disconnected quickly when pipework needs altering.

Frequently asked questions

Which size stopcock do I need?

Match the stopcock to your pipe: VG15SC for 15 mm, VG22SC for 22 mm and VG28SC for 28 mm pipework. Compression ends are sized for the corresponding pipe diameter.

Do I need solder or a blowtorch to fit it?

No. The compression ends are tightened onto the pipe, so no heat, solder or flux is needed.

Can it be used on hot water and heating pipework?

Yes. The stopcock is designed for water and heating systems and is rated for working temperatures from -20°C to 120°C.

Is it approved for drinking water?

Yes. The manufacturer states WRAS approval for potable water applications.

Can I use it on a gas supply?

No. It is intended for water and heating systems only. Use a purpose-made, approved valve for gas pipework and have it fitted by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
