Valve with Reinforced Trigger
The Valve with Reinforced Trigger is the correct replacement valve for the Ashbys Lightweight Wand and for older versions of the Ashbys Metal Power Brush. It delivers smoother trigger action, improved durability and reliable water control during professional carpet cleaning.
This valve is built around a forged brass body for strength, a stainless steel stem for long service life, and a reinforced stainless steel trigger that prevents trigger bending under load. It is rated to 300 psi, making it suitable for typical portable extraction systems.
For servicing and maintenance, the correct repair kit for this valve is the Repair Kit for PC5559 Valve with Reinforced Trigger.
Important Compatibility Notice: This valve fits older Metal Power Brush models only. The current Metal Power Brush uses the PC7957 Heavy Duty Valve (800 psi Type A), which is not suitable for this reinforced trigger valve. Only order this valve if your Metal Power Brush already has this valve installed.
