Adam: What's going on, everybody Adam here with etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at a Waist Valve but in particularly the knobs on the end. So a lot of the times, whether you're in a very hot or cold climate, sometimes this plastic can wear away over time. Whether it's just one side breaking off or the whole entire thing. Well, today in this video, we're going to show you how to replace them and all of your options. So with the knob on this particular Waste Valve on the inside, we're only going to have the plastic threads.
I like that just because the valve that I actually took off earlier didn't have that and it was rusted away and I had to end up replacing the whole entire valve. So this shouldn't be too difficult to unthread, but I do find it a little bit easier to use inaudible 00:00:46 pliers to get a good grip on it.Just because we are going to have to twist this completely off. This one isn't going to rust away, obviously, just because it is plastic. So we can either put the brand new one on. But if you just think you're going to run into that same exact situation, Valterra does offer a metal option.
I just recommend if the original one breaks, don't replace it with the same one because it's got a break, you've seen it break. Just grab the metal one, we have it here at etrailer and it is threaded just the same. If you wanted to, you can go ahead and put a little bit of anti-seize on it or something like that, just to make sure because it is going to be metal on metal. If you really don't want it to rust away over time definitely grab that. But pretty much those are your options.
And if it we're me, I would highly suggest getting the metal replacement. Well, everyone that's just about it for a look at the Valterra Replacement Waste Valve Knobs.
Way better than using channel locks. They haven’t broken yet.
Exact replacement for the missing handle that went AWOL.
I recommend a dab of Loctite on the threads so as to encourage the handle from chasing after its predecessor.
was a little smaller than original handle but worked great.
