Abstract
A stem of a valve for a container for dispensing pressurized fluid, has an inner channel inside a cylindrical housing connecting the at least one lateral inlet opening at its lower end and an outlet opening at its upper end. The inner channel has a conical shape at its lower end and the diameter of the cylindrical housing is increased towards the lower end of the stem and in particular in the section which corresponds to the section with lateral inlet openings. Both adaptations reinforce the stem and make it more resilient against bending and tensile forces.
