The valve body is constructed of brass and operated by a handwheel actuator. Inlet connections are 1\/2 inch MNPT or compression (C), and the outlet is standard garden hose thread. The frostproof design positions the seat washer inside the heated envelope of the building, draining the exposed stem when the valve is closed to prevent ice formation in cold climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sillcock is used where an exterior water supply point is required, typically installed through a masonry or wood-frame wall. The 8-inch stem length accommodates standard wall thicknesses. Plumbers install it in new construction and replacement service on residential homes and light commercial buildings in freeze-prone regions. It is suitable for connecting garden hoses, irrigation supply lines, and general outdoor water service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrostproof design drains stem automatically when valve is closed, reducing freeze risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass body construction for corrosion resistance in exterior plumbing service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch MNPT or compression inlet provides flexible connection options\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGarden hose thread outlet accepts standard hose fittings and accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandwheel actuator for positive manual control without tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch stem length suits typical residential wall penetrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation frostproof sillcock for residential and light commercial exterior plumbing systems with 1\/2 inch supply lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
