Attwood Marine T-Handle Drain Plug, Stainless Steel, 1 in, Without Chain

Overview

The Attwood Marine 7518A3 is a T-handle drain plug for 1 inch diameter drains. A clockwise turn of the handle expands the plug to lock it in place, and a counterclockwise turn releases it for draining or removal.

This version uses stainless steel for the T-handle, shaft, and washers, and it comes without a chain. It suits boats that already use this expandable 1 inch drain plug style and need a straightforward replacement that can be opened and closed by hand.

Key features

• Fits 1 inch diameter drains
• T-handle mechanism locks with a clockwise turn and releases counterclockwise
• Stainless steel T-handle, shaft, and washers for better corrosion resistance in wet marine areas
• Supplied without a chain
• Replacement style for boats set up for an expandable drain plug rather than a threaded plug

Compatibility and fit

Check the drain opening on the boat before ordering. This plug is sized for a 1 inch drain and works with drain tubes or openings made for expandable T-handle plugs. It is not the same style as a threaded garboard plug, so the receiver on the boat needs to match this plug type.

Installation and use

Insert the plug fully into the drain tube and tighten the T-handle until it seats firmly. When it is time to drain or remove the plug, turn the handle back the other way and pull it free. That hand-operated setup is useful on boats that are launched and hauled often and need quick access to the drain without tools.

Use on board

This plug is a good match for boat owners replacing a worn or corroded 1 inch drain plug and keeping the same operating style already fitted to the boat. The stainless hardware is well suited to areas that see spray, rinse water, and frequent handling through the season.
