well made valve
14 years ago
well made and obviously heavy duty. I needed to change which way the valve turned based on the mounting location in my boat and it was as easy as removing the stop nut and remounting it on the other side---there was no need to remove the handle or move any other part. I am confident that this bronze valve will hold up to the salt water that will no doubtedly be in my bilge!

Q: Can the top large nut be removed from the seacock while on the boat with the valve in the closed position while boat is in the water? Its leaking when in the open position and appears to be coming from where it joins the lower part of the seacock?

A: I have yet to open and service one of these groco flanged seacocks. However, it is my understanding that is why these are the most expensive out there. The removal and serviceability of the upper portion. I say of u have a leak, go for it. If the leak gets worse u can always tighten it back up. Let me know how it goes.

Q: I am changing 1 1/2__quote__ through hull which will be used for waste. I will want to use Groco. BV valve but my Question is how do I seal bottom of through hull I have been told that I should not turn the bottom but just pulled in with out turning the seal is this correct?
10 years ago1 Answer
A: Go to U-tube for video instructions and also check ship shape TV for how-to's. But if space is limited - your valve needs to be orientated a certain direction and held in place with screws into the hull. Make or buy the proper through-hull fitting tool to tighten the fitting from the outside. Use lots of 5200 on the fitting and then wipe off the excess.

Q: I want to replace a thru hull with a thru hull and seacock. Will the GRO-TH500W-1/2 inch NPS (which I assume is 1/2 inch ID) match with the GRO-BV750-3/4 inch seacock?
10 years ago4 Answers
A: I do not think so. need to match size for size. looks like groco does not make a tri-flange seacock in 1/2 inch. need to buy the 3/4 inch seacock with 3/4 inch thru-hull. the 1/2 inch thru hull is probably for a vent or similar above the water line. groco website download catalogue in pdf
