Abstract
An electric pressing iron having a smooth, substantially non-porous, corrosion resistant member secured within a recess at the bottom of a valve seat. This member, surrounding the orifice portion of the water control valve between the iron water tank and steam generating chamber, will reduce corrosion and the attachment of mineral deposits at this critical section of the steam iron, thereby extending the life of the iron as well as maintaining consistent control of water flow.
