Square section SS ball valves. Try this site. All the way from
NZ. Email: hfulton@eclipsevalves.com Had to get a plug in there guys. Too hard to resist. Also the
valves have side mounting screw holes. Regards, Hugh From:

[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] On Behalf Of Smyth, Alec Hi Vance, I've got exactly that arrangement but am wanting larger bore
valves. D'you have any idea what that sort of valve George used is called?
They're not regular ball valves, they're a sort of ball valve in a hex shaped body
that has a flat surface to mate against the hull. I just don't know what these
things are called to go looking for them. thanks,

On Behalf Of vbra676539@aol.com George's favorite goop--RTV. You take the handle and follower off
and run the screws through the hull along with the shaft. Let it set, snug it
up, stick the handle back on and you've got a done deal. Sounds awful, but
it worked just fine and cost a grand total of about a dollar two-ninety-eight,
plus valve. Vance -----Original Message----- How is the valve handle sealed at the point where it penetrates
the hull ? I've seen both configurations but couldn't see how the handle
penetration is sealed. Frank D.
