Premium Quality Taps, Valves, Faucets & Plumbing Solutions from Coimbatore
The APE106 2 Way RA Valve M Handle is a premium PTMT dual-outlet angle valve engineered by Aary Plastic for homes, apartments, builders, and commercial plumbing projects across Coimbatore and Pan-India. Also searched as a 2 way angle valve, RA valve, or two-way angle cock, this Elite Series fitting lets you control water flow to two separate fixtures — such as a flush tank and hand shower, or a geyser and wash basin — from a single inlet point, eliminating the need for two separate valves and extra pipework.
Its ergonomic M-shaped handles give independent, leak-proof control at each outlet, while the premium-quality, corrosion-resistant PTMT construction resists rust, cracking, and daily wear even in high-moisture bathroom and utility environments. Compact, easy to wall-mount, and available in White, Charcoal, and Almond finishes, the APE106 2 way RA valve is built for durability, precise flow control, and space-saving installation — a smart, budget-friendly alternative to buying two individual angle valves.
If you are searching for a 2 way RA valve, 2 way angle valve, or two-way angle cock for your bathroom, kitchen, geyser, or utility area, the APE106 2 Way RA Valve M Handle from Aary Plastic is designed to solve one very common plumbing problem: how do you supply water to two fixtures from a single point without running extra pipelines or spending on two separate valves? This detailed guide covers what the APE106 is, how it works, where it is used, why PTMT construction matters, how to install and maintain it, and why it has become one of the most requested dual-outlet valves among plumbers, contractors, and homeowners in Coimbatore and across India.
An RA valve — short for 'Right Angle valve' — is a plumbing fitting installed at a 90-degree angle between a water supply pipe and a fixture such as a tap, geyser, flush tank, or hand shower. A standard RA valve, or angle cock, has a single inlet and a single outlet. A 2 way RA valve, sometimes listed as a 2 in 1 angle cock or double handle angle valve, upgrades this basic design with two independent outlets fed from one common inlet — each with its own handle for separate on/off and flow control.
This means a single water line can now serve two fixtures at once. A classic example: one inlet feeding both a flush tank and a hand shower in the same bathroom, or a geyser and a wash basin sharing one connection point. The APE106 2 Way RA Valve M Handle is Aary Plastic's Elite Series take on this dual-outlet angle valve, built specifically for Indian plumbing standards and household water pressure conditions.
Not every 2 way angle valve on the market is built to the same standard. Cheap, unbranded angle cocks often crack at the threads, develop leaks at the handle spindle, or seize up within a year of daily use — especially in hard-water regions. The APE106 is manufactured from premium-quality, corrosion-resistant PTMT (a high-grade engineering polymer widely used in branded bathroom fittings) and is part of Aary Plastic's Elite Series, which is positioned specifically for buyers who want the convenience of a dual-outlet valve without compromising on build quality, finish, or long-term reliability.
For dealers, plumbers, and builders sourcing PTMT angle valves in bulk, the APE106 also offers a practical commercial advantage: stocking one dual-outlet SKU can replace the need to stock and fit two separate single-outlet angle valves for common two-fixture setups, simplifying both installation and inventory.
The core benefit of any 2 way RA valve is water distribution efficiency. The APE106 draws from a single inlet and splits supply to two independent outlets, so you can run a flush tank and hand shower, or a geyser and wash basin, from one connection point — reducing plumbing complexity, pipe runs, and installation time and cost.
Unlike a simple T-connector, each outlet on the APE106 has its own dedicated M-shaped handle. This means you can shut off water to the hand shower while keeping the flush tank line open, or isolate the geyser connection for servicing without disturbing the wash basin supply — true independent control, not just a shared shut-off.
The M-handle design is more than cosmetic. The wide, ridged grip surface makes it easy to turn the valve fully open or closed with wet hands, without slipping — a small but meaningful detail in bathrooms and utility areas where hands are frequently damp or soapy.
A washer and spindle assembly engineered for a tight seal is what separates a genuinely leak-proof angle valve from one that drips within months. The APE106's leak-proof mechanism is designed to prevent the slow water wastage that often goes unnoticed behind wash basins or under flush tanks — protecting both your water bill and the wall/floor area around the fitting from moisture damage.
Because the APE106 is built from PTMT rather than mild steel or lower-grade plastic, it does not rust, tarnish, or pit over time — even when exposed continuously to tap water, hard water deposits, or humid bathroom conditions. This directly extends the working life of the valve compared to metal alternatives that corrode at the threads and spindle over a few years.
The right-angle body of the APE106 is compact enough to fit neatly behind fixtures, in tight utility recesses, or in wall-mounted installations where space is at a premium — a common requirement in Indian apartment bathrooms and compact utility areas.
Whether you need a gentle trickle for a hand shower or full flow for a flush tank refill, the valve's quarter-turn-style handle action is designed to give precise, repeatable control rather than an abrupt on/off with no middle ground.
Indian residential water pressure can vary significantly between overhead-tank-fed gravity systems and motor-boosted supply lines. The APE106 is built to perform consistently across this range, which matters for both municipal-supply households and those on booster pumps.
Because it is a dual-outlet, wall-mountable fitting, the APE106 2 way RA valve suits a wide range of residential, apartment, and light-commercial plumbing scenarios:
PTMT (Poly Tetra Methylene Terephthalate, commonly marketed under the general 'PTMT' category in the Indian sanitaryware industry) is the material of choice for premium plastic taps, angle valves, and bathroom fittings because it combines several properties that neither ordinary plastic nor budget metal fittings offer together: high resistance to environmental stress cracking, a scratch- and stain-resistant surface finish, non-reactivity with water (so no metallic taste or discoloration), and genuine corrosion resistance rather than a chrome-plated coating that eventually flakes. For a fitting like the APE106 that sits permanently in a wet, humid environment and is operated by hand multiple times a day, this material choice directly determines whether the valve lasts a couple of years or performs reliably for the long term.
The APE106 2 Way RA Valve M Handle comes in three finishes designed to match common Indian bathroom and utility color schemes:
Choosing a finish that matches your existing taps, shower fittings, or sanitaryware line keeps the overall bathroom or utility area looking cohesive rather than mismatched.
While installation should ideally be carried out by a licensed plumber, the general process for fitting the APE106 is straightforward:
PTMT fittings like the APE106 are low-maintenance by design, but a few simple habits extend their working life further:
A natural question for buyers is whether it's better to install one dual-outlet APE106 or simply fit two single-outlet angle valves. In most two-fixture scenarios, the dual-outlet approach has clear practical advantages: fewer fittings to purchase and stock, a single wall-mount point instead of two, less visible plumbing hardware, reduced installation labor, and one fitting to service instead of two. The trade-off is that if one outlet ever needs replacement, the whole unit is affected — though with the APE106's corrosion-resistant PTMT build and leak-proof mechanism, this is designed to be a rare occurrence rather than a routine concern.

Is the APE106 suitable for both hot and cold water lines?
The APE106 is designed for standard residential hot and cold water supply lines, including geyser connections, within normal household pressure and temperature ranges typical of Indian plumbing systems.
Can I control the flush tank and hand shower separately with one APE106 valve?
Yes — that is the primary purpose of the dual-outlet, double-handle design. Each outlet has its own handle, so you can open or close the flush tank supply independently of the hand shower supply.
What size/thread does the APE106 fit?
The APE106 is built to work with standard plumbing thread sizes used across Indian bathroom and utility installations; confirm exact thread specifications with the Aary Plastic sales team for your specific pipe fitting before ordering in bulk.
Is PTMT better than a brass or steel angle valve?
PTMT does not rust or corrode the way mild steel or poorly plated brass fittings can over time, and it resists scratching and staining — making it a strong, budget-friendly alternative for most household and light-commercial applications where non-metallic, corrosion-free performance is a priority.
