Just curious to know - what is everyone's favorite supply-line valve? Valve type, manufacturer, connection-type, etc....

I've always like Apollo ball valves with solder ends. I've replaced almost every valve in every rental I own, and I've never had a problem with 'em!

In my other thread about valves, someone mentioned that you cant buy supply valves with solder ends cause no one sells them anymore. And that they are replaced by compression valves. - or am I an idiot and dont know what I'm talking about?
 
valves

Compression valves for fixture supplies are one thing. Brass/bronze main line valves are a different animal all together. I use the brand the supply house carries, and Appollo is not one of them. Nibco is the most common "domestic" valve, but they also carry a couple of lower priced import lines.
 
I like anything made in China. Since they are going to own us in another 10 years or so I might as well start sucking up now. :eek:
