T&S Brass designed this wall support to secure knee action valves in commercial kitchens, ensuring rigid mounting and precise alignment for hands-free use. Made from aluminum, it positions the valve body 12" from the wall and extends the knee stirrup 3 1/4" forward of a 20" basin, providing clearance for consistent pedal actuation and reducing plumbing strain.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug valve assembly and shut off water. Remove knee-action valve using wrenches. Clean aluminum support (T&S Brass B-0473) with mild detergent and soft cloth. Scrub knee stirrup gently with non-abrasive pad. Rinse, dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion. Check mounting holes, seals; tighten fasteners to specs. Reconnect valve, restore water, test for leaks.#@@#Additional Info#@#The T&S Brass B-0473 wall support mounts a knee action valve with durable aluminum, positioning it 12" from the wall. The knee stirrup extends 3 1/4" in front of a 20" basin; longer lengths up to 24" available by special order.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
T&S Brass designed this wall support to secure knee action valves in commercial kitchens, ensuring rigid mounting and precise alignment for hands-free use. Made from aluminum, it positions the valve body 12" from the wall and extends the knee stirrup 3 1/4" forward of a 20" basin, providing clearance for consistent pedal actuation and reducing plumbing strain.
#@@# Aluminum Construction#@#
The aluminum construction balances corrosion resistance and structural integrity in wet environments. It reduces weight, maintains rigidity for frequent use, and simplifies installation.
#@@# Standard Offset#@#
With a 12" offset from the wall to valve body mounting holes, the bracket fits common sink configurations. This spacing ensures serviceable maintenance access and aligns the actuator with typical knee-operated positions.
#@@# Knee Stirrup Extension#@#
The 3 1/4" stirrup projection places the pedal control in front of a 20" basin, optimizing ergonomic reach. This extension promotes consistent actuation force and minimizes lateral movement that could stress the valve linkage.
#@@# Optional Lengths Available#@#
Longer lengths up to 24" are available by special order for atypical layouts. Facilities with deeper basins or unique counter depths can request extended supports to maintain alignment and operation.
#@@# Commercial Duty Fit#@#
This bracket integrates with knee action valve assemblies in high-use foodservice and healthcare settings. It is designed for durability and repeatable performance under continuous pedal cycling.
#@@# Installation Simplicity#@#
Mounting provisions match industry-standard valve body locations, streamlining retrofits or new installations. Contractors benefit from predictable hole placement and a lightweight product that eases handling.
