It connects to a standard garden hose and uses water pressure to automatically pull fresh water into the boat's cooling system, so freshwater flushing becomes as simple as hooking up a hose. The valve is also commonly used to winterize an inboard engine at the end of the season, and it can be used with onboard generators as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is for the valve only, sized for 1-1\/4 inch hose connections. The valve body is built from polymer with stainless steel components for corrosion resistance in a marine environment, and it uses a 1-1\/4 inch NPT threaded inlet and outlet connection. Perko also offers this same inline valve in 5\/8 inch and 1 inch hose sizes, and a companion Valve \u0026amp; Kit version for buyers who need the mounting kit included, so be sure to match the hose size and configuration to your engine's flushing setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perko\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0456DP7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engine Flushing and Winterizing Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor Hose Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polymer, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Female Iron Pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inch connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flush Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.6 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 x 9 x 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 085226343414\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Perko 0456DP7 is a universal-fit valve designed for inboard engines, sized for 1-1\/4 inch hose connections.
