Several years ago, I was a Chief Engineer of a major midtown office building. When ordering parts I always specified that they be american made. One such order was 3/4 inch brass check valves. They weren't the greatest quality and I saw USA stamped on the side.
Long story short they began to fail. I did some research and realised that USA was different from U.S.A. USA is an industrial complex in Japan to trick us. Pure and simple.
