Default Heater hose valve

Hi

I have one of these valves. How far can you turn them to open and allow flow through? I have it turned pretty far out but still have room. I'm afraid to go further and have it come off in my hand.

The tap (would you call it a faucet?) will stop before it comes out, it'll only come out if you undo the brass part that's on the top of the elbow part.

I have one on my 8ba. I open mine all the way out with no problems. Hope this helps.
