Brass Garboard Drain Plug and Housing
Choose a complete brass garboard drain fitting with a 50mm-diameter housing and a 9/16-inch brass plug. The assembly supplies both mating components, useful when the housing as well as the plug needs replacement.
This garboard style is used on American boats. Compare the housing footprint, opening and fixing layout with the boat before fitting it; the country of manufacture is not a substitute for a dimensional check. Replacement plug 400367 is the separate plug option for this assembly.
Choosing and using this product
When comparing alternatives, use the specified material and intended application rather than assuming every marine fitting is suitable for every liquid. Keep the part reference with the plumbing records so future spares can be matched to the connection actually installed.
Keep service points accessible and follow the relevant system instructions for fastening, sealing and hose support. Avoid forcing a hose or thread to compensate for an unsuitable fitting. Confirm the finished connection and normal system operation before putting the installation back into use.
For a replacement, inspect the existing fitting and adjoining hose before ordering. Consider the direction of the connection as well as its size. An elbow, straight fitting or barbed tail changes the route and clearance needed even when the nominal connection size is similar.
Check the stated contents when putting together the plumbing run. A fitting-only listing does not necessarily include hose, clamps, seals or a mounting assembly. Lay out the required connections before installation so the finished arrangement can be checked as a whole.
Plan the connection from the system outward: identify the fluid application, mating thread or hose size, and the space available for the fitting. A nominal pipe-thread size is a separate measurement from a hose diameter, so compare the correct dimension at each connection.
