It features a 1\/4-18 NPTF male pipe thread connection and is rated for up to 150 psi working pressure. The valve allows a technician to drain fluid from a line, tank, or system quickly without disconnecting fittings. Its all-brass body resists corrosion in water and light hydrocarbon service. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians typically install this type of valve at low points in pressurized systems to facilitate controlled drainage and winterization procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drain cock is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating systems, compressed air lines, and similar fluid systems where a small-bore manual drain valve is called for. The 1\/4-18 NPTF thread engages directly with standard pipe fittings, making it a straightforward replacement or new-installation component at drain ports and petcock locations throughout a system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass body construction for corrosion resistance in water and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPTF male pipe thread for leak-free tapered thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 psi maximum working pressure rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum working temperature of 32 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor suited for low-point drain applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation drain cock for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic, and compressed air systems using standard 1\/4-18 NPTF pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter.
