New Member - tool required

[Wortonmiller]

Hello all

Can anybody please help me find (purchase rent or borrow) an old style main stopcock key that is 1 1/4 inch square drive? I got yorkshire water (i'm in Holmfirth) to turn it on a few weeks ago, Its a quarter turn (clockwise) "on" then another quarter turn in the same direction to turn "off" again. (the guy that came told me if I turn it the other way sooner or later i'll have a fountain) off but now I need to do some work re-routing the incoming main so will need to turn it off and on a couple of times in the next week or two.

Thanks
Chris

Hi mate these can snap easily if you use a key i've snapped one before and its not nice. you can buy them from toolstation or most plumbers merchants be very careful if you use a key , can you not use hands or is it too far down?
