A valve for a water faucet or the like of the type which when actuated does not have a part that rises, and which valve includes a rotary sealing plate against which spring loaded seals cooperate to seal the valve when the plate is turned to the "off" position. The valve includes a cartridge which has a stem formed as one piece along with the rotary valve and which cartridge also has a sleeve in which the stem rotates. The assembled sleeve is formed of two sleeves which are held in assembled relationship by means of a recess and projection connection, thereby the upper sleeve can be easily moved axially from the lower sleeve when the valve is to be disassembled. The lower sleeve has a pair of circumferentially spaced slots which function both as a water passage and also as a stop for limiting the rotation of the stem within the assembled sleeve.
