Ball Cock Parts Kit

A Ball Cock Parts Kit is a collection of components used to repair or replace the ball cock mechanism in a plumbing fixture. The ball cock is a valve that controls the flow of water into a toilet tank or other plumbing fixture. Over time, the parts of the ball cock can wear out or become damaged, leading to leaks or other issues.

The Ball Cock Parts Kit typically includes components such as:

1. Ball Cock Assembly: This is the main valve mechanism that controls the flow of water. It consists of a float ball attached to a lever arm, which opens and closes the valve.

2. Float Ball: This is a hollow ball that floats on the surface of the water in the toilet tank. When the water level drops, the float ball lowers and opens the valve to allow water to enter the tank.

3. Float Rod: This is a metal rod that connects the float ball to the valve assembly. It moves up and down with the float ball to open and close the valve.

4. Valve Seat: This is a rubber or plastic seal that forms a watertight seal when the valve is closed. It prevents water from leaking out of the tank when the toilet is not in use.

5. Diaphragm or Washer: This is a flexible rubber or plastic component that helps create a seal between the valve and the water supply line. It prevents water from leaking around the valve.

6. Mounting Hardware: This includes screws, nuts, and washers used to secure the ball cock assembly to the toilet tank.

The Ball Cock Parts Kit is designed to provide all the necessary components to repair or replace the ball cock mechanism in a plumbing fixture. It is commonly used in toilets, but can also be used in other plumbing fixtures that use a similar valve mechanism.
