This invention relates to a faucet valve for controlling the rate of flow of fluid from a first conduit usually to a second conduit in which there is provided a valve stem adapted by means of an externally threaded collar to be mounted and retained in a faucet housing and a swivel valve attached to one end of the foregoing valve stem by engaging or gripping means including a plurality of spaced resilient elongate arms disposed circumferentially about the body of said valve and terminating in a series of fingers or detents retained in, but detachable from, an annular groove formed in the valve stem, and contiguous with the button or flattened knob or foot forming the adjacent end of the valve stem. The valve body is modified on one surface to provide a resilient snap-on engagement of the foregoing arms and fingers with the valve stem. |
