The name Hahn derives from the original principle of the stopcock, in which the so-called chick closes the flow cross-section. Modern faucets use instead of the plug a valve plate (plate with spindle), which is pressed perpendicular to a sealing surface. Therefore, the term "faucet" actually passed to the shut-off valve.
