Value Collection 3712303844JP Wing Nut Drain Cock 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 3712303844JP is a steel wing nut drain cock shutoff valve designed for manual flow control and system draining in plumbing and fluid-handling applications. The valve features a 3/8-inch thread connection and is rated to 200 psi, making it suitable for a range of low-to-medium pressure service lines. The steel construction provides durability in demanding environments. The wing nut handle allows for tool-free operation, letting a technician open or close the valve by hand. This type of drain cock is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC service technicians as a drain point or isolation valve on water lines, boilers, and hydronic heating systems.

This drain cock shutoff valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a reliable, manually operated drain point is needed. Typical applications include boiler drain connections, water heater drain lines, and general-purpose shutoff or bleed points on pressurized water systems. The 3/8-inch thread size fits standard pipe fittings used in these installations. The compact size and wing nut handle make it practical in tight spaces where a wrench may not be readily accessible.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Before installing or removing the valve, shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before making up the connection hand-tight, then snug with a wrench. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage the valve body.
