The Brass Water Drinking Nipple is a popular valve for use with mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, birds and larger Rodents such as Rabbits, Ferrets, and Chinchilla's because it is so easy to activate. These use low pressure, water pressure should be kept under 8 psi. The flow-rate of water from the valve can be adjusted by twisting the valve cap clockwise to decrease flow or counter-clockwise to increase the flow-rate This model has a 1/8" MPT for use with PVC Pipe. The valve is made of solid brass, with a stainless steel stem, and rugged elastomer seal and diaphragm. How it Works: To drink, animals simply move the stainless steel stem by biting or licking, releasing water. When the animal releases the end of the stem, the elasticity of the silicone rubber diaphragm located behind the stem head pushes the head back to the closed position, stopping the flow of water.
