INDIANAPOLIS—Delta Faucet Co. recently unveiled its patented DIAMOND Seal Technology, a new water delivery system that eliminates contact with potential metal contaminants such as brass, copper or lead, keeping water as pure as it entered the faucet.

It also provides guaranteed protection from leaks and drips. Comprised of a next generation DIAMOND valve and InnoFlex waterways, the system reduces the number of potential leak points, simplifies installation and provides long lasting performance.

“DIAMOND Seal Technology is the future of faucets,” said Rick Roetken, vice president of marketing, Delta Faucet Co. “The lead-free waterway system ensures that once the water enters the faucet it does not come in contact with metal contaminants. This groundbreaking engineering uniquely harnesses the durability of diamond, to create a leak-free valve which lasts up to 10 times longer than the industry standard.”

The DIAMOND valve is an integrated ceramic valve cartridge featuring one ceramic disc and one diamond-embedded ceramic disc. As the two discs in the DIAMOND valve move against each other, the diamond-embedded ceramic disc constantly polishes the uncoated ceramic disc, preventing buildup of calcium and mineral deposits and ensuring smooth, consistent operation over the life of the faucet.

Once inside the faucet, water is not in contact with potential metal contaminants, such as brass, copper and lead. DIAMOND Seal Technology by Delta Faucet Co. also satisfies California statute AB 1953, mandating that by January 1, 2010, the weighted average lead content in pipes, fittings and fixtures used to convey drinking water cannot exceed 0.25% lead on wetted surfaces.
