Today we're going to be taking a look at the Valterra RV waste valve. This unit simply adds or replaces a waste valve on your RV's waste system. It's going to be made from a strong and durable black plastic construction. It does come with the end cap right here for the drain outlet. The cap is going to be tethered to the unit so you don't have to worry about accidentally losing that or misplacing it. The connection point right here for your drain hose, this is going to accept your standard three inch diameter drain hose with a bayonet style fitting. That's got four attachment prongs on there.
Then you're going to have the easily accessible handle up here that's a t-grip handle. That's going to open and close the gate. The other side that connects to your RV's plumbing system. This is going to accept three inch standard plumbing pipe, so what we can do is simply take an internal measurement of that. As we do, you'll see that that is going to give us a measurement internally of about three and a half inches.
That's the diameter there, inside edge to inside edge, so your plumbing pipe on your RV, that's going to have an internal diameter of three inches. That's going to have quarter inch wall tubing on it. When you combine that three inch inner diameter with a quarter inch on each side of the tubing, that's where we get the three and a half inch diameter from, which will fit perfectly inside of the connection point here on this waste valve. Overall, it's a nice structural design. The hardware's included. The unit's already pre-assembled.
The t-handle's going to make opening and closing the gate quick and easy. The unit's already assembled and it has the appropriate seals internally to offer a leak-proof performance. The last thing I want to mention is I just want to go over some overall measurements with you. What we can do is I'm just going to take and overall length measurement of the unit with it closed and then with the handle fully extended. When we do that from edge to edge, we're looking at a measurement of about nine and a half inches. When we extend that out, that's going to increase it to around 13 inches.
That's going to do it for today's look at the Valterra RV waste valve.

Replaces the valve for your RV's black-water tank. 3" Diameter passage allows wastewater to travel freely when valve is open. 3" Hub slides onto sewer pipe. Bayonet cap fits over the 3" lug fitting that connects to your sewer hose.Last November I purchased a drain valve from etailer. I recently got around to installing it on my 2018 Montana High Country fifth wheel camper. The valve shut offs are operated by (throttle) cable. These valves do not always close completely. I chose to install the valve at the outlet just in case the cable valves don't completely close. Attached is a before and after picture.
Thank you etrailer.
My experience with Valterra valves is that they're very reliable and of good quality. This valve fit perfectly for my application (on a 3in ABS sewer pipe) I was able to install in minutes. Used my old cap as it has a hose bib.
Very satisfied with price, quality and fitment.
Works very well. As always, very fast shipping, item as promised.
received T 50 valve one day earlier

Great…thanks for a good product
I no longer have to reach under my motorhome to connect the drain hose thanks to the added waste valve. Works perfectly.

One of my best purchases. Really makes drain process so much easier and cleaner.
Product arrived as expected. I haven’t installed the product but have exercised the valve found it to be lubed properly and function smoothly and it confirms while my current valve is operable its not operating properly so I’m glad I’ll now be able to replace it with a quality product and have peace of mind that I’m not polluting the highways with you know what. It combines and replaces two separate parts for my specific RV so it’s all around a win win
Made well. Works good
As always, great products at a reasonable price.
It was exactly what I ordered,One on my travel trailer,hanger broke,it kind of disintegrated,before I noticed it,while dragging on the street.This looks easy to replace and will be good to go on my next camping trip.
I have order things before from ETrailer and am always completely satisfied.
I would swear I bought the slip on version but in my case this version that was shipped worked perfect. 2020 Jayco has two grey and one black exiting to this 3" RV drain. Consistently I would get at least one gallon of grey sewage when opening the cover. Could be a leaking valve (hidden away under the bellows skirting or it could be residual in the pipes. In either case I hacksaw cut out the existing bayonet hub then cemented this in (just like your PVC sprinkler pipes) it's place at the end of the run. So I now have 3 stock valves and one new 3" value exactly the same distance under the trailer as was the stock cover and bayonet hub. You might call it my emergency valve. Easy access and easy maintenance...the way it should be! I did not buy the ridiculous $5,000+ warranty and dealer wants $180 per hour not including the repair, plus the tech never called my back. Typical customer service in the RV world. Works if you have enough PVC exposed to make the cut. Sorry no photos.
The waste valve is really a must have. If you have ever opened the cap on your sewer drain only to discover that one of your valves was not shut properly, you will understand why. It is easy to install and smooth to operate.
Had a cable system for black and gray disposal. Always hard to open. Replaced with traditional valves. Worked perfectly.

Works good
Works as intended. Slide is easy to move and seals to prevent water bypassing the gate.
I ordered a Valterra 3" RV waste valve. This valve was shipped and received very fast. I haven't had a chance to install it yet. I'm sure it will do what I need it to do. It will be used on a portable dump tank.
Very good service from etrailer and I will order from them again.
Fitment is excellent and works as it should! Nice tight close. I bought this to add at the end of my drain as the one inside the body wasn’t quite closing off properly leaving slight drainage.
I won't have any surprises next time I remove the cap to attach the sewer hose.
Had one of my valves that leaked and when taking cap off to hook up hose, out came a mess on ground. This installed on end of dump pipe ended that problem.
Great product to prevent surprises when it's time to empty the black and grey tanks. It's also a backup in case one of the drain valves gets stuck open.
Excellent quality, packaged very well. Arrived sooner than expected! Great online service for parts. Parts will be used to separate black water from grey water, black water to septic, grey water to tank for other uses. Thanks again,
e-trailer always gives me fast service with fair pricing. I have 2 boats, 1 RV, and a motorcycle trailer all complimented with upgrades from e-trailer.
Was a bit more difficult to install than anticipated. Matting up to the old plumbing was interesting. In the end was able to get everything working properly. Has seen limited use since the repair. Did do a cursory look at it the other day and all worked as it was supposed to. Happy with the results.
Fast service. Great product
Don’t know where it shows it was delivered but I never received it the last report was it was to be delivered Jan 31 2022,but never received it I was in need of it because of leaving on a trip, I had to buy one to be delivered next day
