end stop / cutting off the flow / stop valve / stopcock

It seems that 先止め式 refers to when water (especially hot water) stops right at the faucet rather than the boiler (see second reference link).
I'm not experienced in plumbing, but perhaps 先止め is similar to a stop valve, shutoff valve or stopcock?
I also think that something like "cutting off the flow" may be a possible translation in this context.
Note from asker:
"Cutting off the flow" works perfectly in this context and the larger document. You're a genius. Thank you!

cutting off the flow at the end point

"Cutting off the flow at the end point" would be a literal translation. However, you can use "control the flow at the end point" for 先止めが可能なため.
