A valve body (104) for a cartridge-operated fire extinguisher, the valve body comprising:

• a first fixing point (300) comprising a first aperture (300a) for receiving a first shaft of a first bolt, wherein the first aperture has a first fixing point axis (A);
• a second fixing point (302) comprising a second aperture (302a) for receiving a second shaft of a second bolt, wherein the second aperture has a second fixing point axis (B);
• and
• a third fixing point (304) comprising a third aperture (304a) for receiving a third shaft of a third bolt, wherein the third aperture has a third fixing point axis (C),
• wherein the first fixing point axis (A) and the second fixing point axis (B) are parallel, and
• wherein the third fixing point axis (C) is oriented at an angle relative to the first fixing point axis (A) and the second fixing point axis (B);
• wherein the third fixing point axis (C) is oriented at an angle of between 10° to 50° relative to the first fixing point axis (A) and the second fixing point
• wherein the valve body (104) comprises a core (306), and wherein the first fixing point (300), second fixing point (302), and third fixing point (304) each protrude radially outward from the core (306);
• and
• wherein the first fixing point (300), second fixing point (302), and third fixing point (304) are equally spaced from one another around a perimeter of the core (306).
