Sloan 3308387 Ground Joint Tail Inlet Vr Stop Cap 1in Nptf

Product Description

The SLOAN 3308387 is a ground joint tail inlet assembly with a VR stop cap, designed for use with screwdriver-operated angle control stops in commercial flush valve installations. The inlet features a 1-inch NPTF threaded connection, providing a pressure-rated, leak-resistant fit at the supply stub-out. This component is part of the water supply connection between the building rough-in and the flush valve body. Licensed plumbers install this fitting during new construction or when replacing worn or damaged inlet assemblies on existing flush valve systems.

This tail inlet is suited for commercial restroom applications where Sloan-style angle stop configurations are standard. It is commonly installed in institutional, hospitality, and municipal facilities that rely on flush valve systems for water closets or urinals. The screwdriver angle control stop configuration allows service personnel to adjust or shut off water supply to individual fixtures without specialized tools, which is a common requirement in high-traffic commercial environments.

Key Features

• Ground joint design provides a secure, leak-resistant seal at the flush valve inlet connection
• Includes VR stop cap for screwdriver-operated angle control stop adjustment
• 1-inch NPTF inlet thread for pressure-rated tapered fitting engagement
• Domestically produced fitting consistent with commercial plumbing specification requirements
• Direct replacement configuration for H-700-AG style inlet assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement tail inlet for Sloan screwdriver angle control stop flush valve supply connections requiring a 1-inch NPTF inlet with VR stop cap. Refer to the H-700-AG series designation when cross-referencing with flush valve rough-in specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC standards. Shut off the building water supply or close the isolation valve serving the fixture before removing the existing inlet assembly. Use appropriately sized pipe wrenches and thread sealant rated for potable water systems when making NPTF connections. Do not overtighten the ground joint connection, as this can damage the sealing surface and result in leaks at the flush valve body.
