Built from brass with a 1\/4-18 NPTF threaded connection, it handles pressures up to 150 psi and operates in temperatures as low as -30 degrees F. The compact form factor and standard thread size make it a reliable choice for plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians who need a straightforward drain point or manual shutoff in a small-diameter line. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal without requiring additional sealant tape in most applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drain cock is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a low-cost, reliable manual drain or shutoff is needed on 1\/4-inch pipe lines. Common applications include boiler drain points, compressed air system low points, chiller drain loops, and equipment service ports. Its brass construction resists corrosion in both wet and dry service environments, making it appropriate for plumbing, HVAC, and pneumatic piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPTF male pipe thread for pressure-tight connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass body construction for corrosion resistance in wet and pneumatic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for service down to -30 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact drain cock design for installation in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation drain cock for 1\/4-inch NPTF pipe connections in plumbing, HVAC, and compressed air systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable IPC or local mechanical code requirements. Depressurize and isolate the line fully before removing or installing this valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape as required by the system fluid and local code, noting that NPTF threads are designed to seal on the thread form itself. Do not overtighten, as brass fittings are susceptible to thread damage from excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -30 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.22 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCR601-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541347369266,"sku":"DCR601-4","price":46.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c7c324254c62fb7f31f14f851cd75a58.jpg?v=1785873151","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-dcr601-4-drain-cock-shutoff-valve-1-4-18-nptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
