Seacocks
That's basically it.
Here's the real deal: http://spartanmarine.com/source/25.htm Eric "Steve" wrote in message ... "Steve" wrote in message ... I just wish I had a good online reference to what a proper tapered plug valve looks like.. OK, here is the best I could do with a quick Google. It is a commercial TAPERED PLUG VALVE. http://www.conind.com/pdf/plug%20valve.pdf It's not a sea cock but it is a tapered plug valve and has straight threads on the inlet side and standard pipe threads on the outlet side. In this valve the plug could be removed and the plug lapped/overhauled without removing the valve from the system.. With a plug in the through hull, it could be serviced in the water. (I've done this many times) You could never do this with a ball valve since the ball can not be easily removed and if it is, there is no way to resurface the ball surface if scored.
