Video Transcript for What to Know About the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank

Today we're going to be taking a look at the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve. This is a three inch valve. It's going to allow you to replace, repair, or upgrade to a new dependable valve. It's got a metal handle right here on top. Very strong, durable design. You shouldn't have to worry about that ever breaking.

That's going to sit on top of a stainless steel shaft that's going to be strong and durable, as well as highly resistant to rust and corrosion. Now, these valves are interchangeable with most other brands. It's going to include the valve, the seals, the nuts and bolts for your full installation. The seals are made from a santoprene construction that's designed to resist chemicals and corrosion. Now, when you're ready to install the unit you'll need to remove your old valve and seals. Place the new seals over the lip of the existing flanged fittings. Insert the new valve, being careful not to dislodge the seals.

Then, tighten everything down for your full installation with the included hardware. A few measurements to go over with you real quick. I do want to mention just how easy of an operation it offers. Really nice design. Allows you to easily open and close the unit. You've got the T-grip handle right here and it just operates really nice and smooth.

Now, the overall length of the unit with it in a closed position is going to be about nine and a half inches. With it open we're looking at about twelve and three quarters of a inch. The width is going to measure about four and three eighths of an inch. Then, it's got four mount holes that's going to be a square pattern, so the distance that we have between each hole, measuring on center, is going to be about three and three quarters of an inch. That's going to be the same separation between each hole. That's going to do it for today's look at the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve..

Glad I shelled out a little more for the aluminum handle which should last my lifetime.



by:

Great price and products. Could have been shipped quicker.

Converting airstream thetford valve to vaulters. The combination I chose dropped the drain 2” below the belly. I’ll have to install a grey tank to tuck everything up in my 73 Sovereign 31’ center bath rv.



by:

Thanks for the email
I don't have much
to say about the product. It is static in the open position 90% of the time.
I do appreciate how you at etrailer have kept me informed and asked questions, insuring that I am satisfied.
You may be able to tell from the attached photos, we are using these as gate valve for a fume exhaust system.
These are old photos. We have moved to a new facility, and the hoses are upgraded.

Easy to install, works fine.

Very happy a year after my purchase.



by:

There is nothing glamorous about buying 3" DWV fittings. But, etrailer made it easy with their great website and helpful videos. Was able to order all the fittings I needed to install a Sani-Con on my fifth wheel.



by:

The items were shipped right away and they were exactly what I ordered. I have not installed them yet, but I do not anticipate any problems as it looks like they have everything that I will need included.



by:

Used this to replace the old valve on my black tank. Works as advertised



by:

Well I ordered quantity of 3, not sure what happened?
Original order # 115243947
Called in to change ship to address and guy changed to 1 I suppose??

Holding up well still makes a great seal



by:

Easy to install. I would recommend to coat seals with petroleum jelly to hold in place while installing. Make sure black water tank is well drained and cleaned out before beginning install. Otherwise could be smelly business.

Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for rv waste tanks, fit and function was perfect. I purchased the valves with the new seals and bolts. Changed both in about 10 minutes. So if you have a gray water and black water tank, go ahead and replace them both. Your there one time to take care of any problems.



by:

I was highly impressed with my first experience with etrailer and Karen, the assistant who helped me with my order. It was exactly as advertised and at a very fair price. I used economy shipping and received my order in three days.
I will definitely go right to etrailer the next time I need RV parts.

I just recently purchased an (OLD) 1988 ALPENLITE, 25+2 Fifth wheel camp trailer. As
you would expect "the old girl needs some TLC". I am a new customer to etrailer & so far their service has been "GREAT" !!!!!!!!!!. The customer service ladies I have dealt w/
have both been very help full.



by:

I installed both grey water and sewer valves and it was a fairly simple job. The valves fit perfectly and I am happy with the Valterra valves.



by:

Exact replacement for 1990 Airstream black and gray dump valves. Work well.



by:

This item was out of stock for several weeks but etrailer stayed in touch with me and keep me informed of the status of the order on a regular basis. The item arrived last week and now I am ready for my next camping trip. I have ordered from etrailer in the past. Thier customer service and products are second to none.



by:

Very good product very happy with the trailer was very easy to install

Works perfect highly recommend etrailer.



by:

Prior to receiving my order I was thinking that I would have to purchase associated hardware and seals, but the part I ordered came with new associated hardware and seals. That was an awesome discovery. It came ready to install.



by:

Excellent pricing, service & prompt delivery. Took about an hour to install both Grey & Black water dump valves.



by:

great service, easy to install, will use etrailer for future needs.
leaked, put Vaseline on gaskets, not a problem.



by:

Perfect fit and ridiculously easy to install! It came super fast and took about 10 minutes to install. I only wish I had bought a second one and swapped out the gray water valve while I was at it!



by:

Shippping was timely and status was available for each step. Installation was easy with new hardware.



by:

Reasonable price, super speedy shipping, item protected well in box. Appreciate the quick response to my product question. Was easy to install and such a relief to not lay down at a nasty dump station to pull the old gate out (bad back and neck). Camping just became a little more fun . . .

  • Availability of 3 inch Waste Valve to Replace Bristol Waste Valve
    We have quite a few different 3 inch waste valves that would work for you. For example, we have the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body # T1003VPM which has an aluminum T-handle on it for opening and closing.

  • Slip Hub for Attaching a Waste Valve to a 3" Outlet on a Gray Water Tank
    Yes, using the Valterra RV Sewer Slip Hub with Flange # T1005 paired with a guillotine style waste valve like the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body # T1003VPM is a good option for your gray water tank. This would bond together using the Valterra ABS Solvent Cement # A05-0303.

  • 3 Inch Waste Valve for Black Water Tanks with a Removable Handle
    We do have a 3 inch diameter black water waste valve with a handle that unscrews but part # T1003VPM doesn't have a removable handle. Instead use part # 34439240 from LaSalle Bristol. Additionally, use part # 34466SP1112 for a 12 inch extension.

  • Reese Goose Box Replacement for 2007 Keystone Cougar Pin Box and Replacement Waste Valves
    Your 2007 Keystone Cougar did come with the Lippert 1621 pin box, so you can absolutely replace it with the Reese Goose Box # RP85FR. You will be well under the 20K capacity of this pin box replacement. If you just need the waste water valves, I recommend the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Gray Water Tank - Aluminum Handle - 1-1/2" Diameter # T1001VPM and the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank - Aluminum Handle - 3" Diameter # T1003VPM.

  • Could Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Be Used with 3-1/2 inch Valve Body
    If the 3-1/2 inch diameter you mentioned is the outside diameter and the inside was 3 inch yes, the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank # T1003VPM could be used. If you needed the entire valve assembly you'd want the part # T40A instead. This comes with a spigot fitting on either end of the valve.

  • Do Hub and Spigot Connections Need to be Cut Off to Swap Out Drain Valve
    It depends on what type of waste valve you currently have. If you have a Valterra Bladex then you can replace the waste valve body with part # T1001VP for a 1-1/2" diameter or part # T1003VPM for a 3" diameter. If you have a different brand or you aren't able to swap out the valve body then you will need to replace it with the hub and spigot ends like part # 34466N11AB36GM or # 34466N4AB36GM respectively.

  • Adding a Blade Valve to the end of my Tanks Dump Plumbing
    While there isn't an adapter to go directly between the Valterra Waste Valve for RV Black Water Tank part # T50A can be added on in place of your current 3" lug cap in place now. Simply cut it off and attach this one using the LaSalle Bristol ABS Solvent Cement part # 3447530889. This will give you the valve in place to keep the stuff off of your hands. The Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank part # T1003VPM you looked at can be used to replace the existing valves...

  • Replacement Waste Valves Needed for a 2000 Fleetwood Discovery Motorhome
    It actually looks like you have the Valterra Double RV Waste Valves # T80. This comes with both of the waste valves already installed and they can be rotated 360 degrees on the elbows for ease of installation. We do have replacement waste valves but to know exactly what you need you would have to take your current system apart. If it all comes off as one unit then you can install the # T80. If it comes apart differently please let me know and I can help you find the correct replacement...

  • Waste Valve for Black Tank Will Open But Not Close with Handle
    It sounds like the linkage inside the waste valve might have become disconnected. I would first check to make sure the metal rod is tight inside the body and to the handle but aside from this I don't really have any repair procedures for this. If you can give me a bit more information as to what waste valve you have (make/model) I can call the manufacturer and see if they have any advice otherwise your best option would be to just replace the valve. For this we have the Valterra Bladex...

  • Can the Ends of the Double RV Waste Valves # T80 be Removed
    You could remove the ends of the Double RV Waste Valves # T80 but instead of purchasing this part I recommend using the RV Sewer Elbow # T1036 which is what I believe you are trying to use. If you are needing to replace any of the valves we have those as parts # T1001VPM and # T1003VPM as well as the cap as part # T1020 but if you need to replace that much it is much more cost effective to go with the whole unit that you referenced. I have linked our selection of RV sewer parts as well...

  • Replacement Seals for 1-1/2 Inch Valterra Bladex Waste Valve
    The Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Gray Water Tank - Aluminum Handle - 1-1/2" Diameter # T1001VPM uses replacement seals # T1001-9VP. For your 3 inch valve, you most likely want the Replacement Seals and Hardware for 3" Valterra Waste Valves # T1003-7VP but I can't confirm the fit, so you may just want to use the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank - Aluminum Handle - 3" Diameter # T1003VPM to have a precise fit.

  • Installation of the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank
    The image on the sight you refer to is of an uninstalled valve body, once the tubing is in place it will be sealed. When the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Body for RV Black Water Tank, # T1003VPM, is properly installed there will not be any leaks.

  • My 3" Valterra Black Tank Valve Leaks - Needs New Seals
    As a clarification, all valves, including the # T1003VPM, include seals, as pictured in picture 10 on the product page. However, I can see that your 3" waste valve is missing it's seals. I would not buy a new complete valve when all you need are the replacement seals. Valterra makes two Replacement Seals & Hardware kits for their valves. The # T1003-7VP is for "old style" Valterra valves made prior to 2000, and # T1003VPM is the current style that fits Valterra, Bristol, Bladex, and Anonda...
