Explanation:
i beg to differ.

literally yes, stopcock is pili penutup, but in this medical context, i.e. " A type of valve used in medical devices, usually to control fluid flow through IV delivery system. "..

the best term is injap penutup 3 arah instead of pili penutup 3 arah.

in many other technical / medical applications, cock is referring to valve.
