Anyone know a good source for stainless steel ball valves and fittings?  I got one for my kettle off ebay but it wasn't cheap.  Had a look at these guys though, seem a bit better:

Those are some form of brass I belive.  Check www.mybeerandwine.ie for stainless taps.

That would be Stainless Brass then.  :-X

Naw definitely not stainless. More like nickle or chrome plated brass, but definitely brass just like your neck :P
