Flush Valve

Scovill Manufacturing Company, founded in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1802, was a major American producer of brass goods and industrial hardware. The Plumbers Brass Goods Division specialized in cast and fabricated brass fittings, valves, and plumbing components that became standard in American infrastructure during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The company's output represents a significant body of functional metalwork shaped by industrial processes and engineering demands rather than aesthetic intent, yet the precision castings and joinery of these objects reveal the technical sophistication of American manufacturing during its industrial expansion.
