There are very few things to look at while you are standing at the urinal, especially if you adhere to the rules of men's restroom etiquette. So one finds himself pondering the wall tile pattern, the pen scribbles in the grout, the ceiling, or the optimal stream pattern to reduce splash. These are, for the most part, rather dull and non-upsetting things to think about while doing your business. So why, WHY, must the manufacturers for urinal connectivity pipes put such an unusual statement on the very place where your gaze is most likely to fall? What does it mean? What are they asking to turn, and why would it be loose? If loose, would it make a lot of noise? Wouldn't it leak all over the place? I can't take it anymore!

Turn-to-Silence Equipment
Delany uses a Delrin choke ring in the main valve seat to create a cushion of water. This hydraulic cushion allows the valve to seat slowly, smoothly and silently. In the stop, a floating rubber skirt slows the turbulent noisy water to a quiet streamline flow.
Addendum: To the engineers at Delany, the regulation ergonomic stance of the pisser is to look ahead, not look down and wonder what "Turn To Silence" means.

I do not know the answer to that , but think about this. There is a local pub that I like to go to and the pipes running from the sinks in both bathrooms have my name on them. It is the name of the pipe manufacturer. How annoying is that?

Turn your body to silence the rest of the people in the bathroom.
