520010-1 — Screw-in nylon drain
Nylon 1-inch drain body with a recess intended to retain installation sealant.
Sea-Dog Boat Drain Plugs: Garboard, Snap & T-Handle Guide
A boat's transom drain, bilge garboard outlet and removable drain plug can look similar but use different seals and attachment methods. Compare Sea-Dog's nylon drain fittings, bronze pipe-thread garboard drains, expanding snap- and T-handle plugs, and matching drain tubes by manufacturer part number before ordering.
Understand the four drain-part families
Threaded nylon drain
520010-1 uses a one-inch nylon drain body; its molded recess helps retain installation sealant. The 520021-1 kit replaces the plug and gasket only.
Bronze garboard fittings
520040-1 is the complete machined-bronze drain with a 1/2-inch NPT plug and two-inch mounting flange. Its matching replacement closure is 520041-1.
Removable compression plugs
For round openings, choose by measured size, handle and metal: snap-lever brass/stainless or T-handle brass/stainless. The 1-1/4-inch 520082-1 differs from the one-inch models.
Drain tubes are separate parts
520230-1 is a one-inch-diameter formed brass tube requiring flaring; 520320-1 is a white adjustable HDPE tube with a locking nut.

The manufacturer's one-inch measurements on expanding plugs do not identify a 1/2-inch NPT garboard thread. Confirm the original fitting, and follow the marine installation instructions for sealing and fastening.
How to choose a drain replacement
- Identify the drain's location and sealing design: screw-in nylon, bronze garboard or rubber expansion plug.
- Measure the existing opening and match any thread callout, including 1/2-inch NPT on the 520040 bronze garboard family.
- Check component scope and installation requirements. A plug-only item will not replace a damaged base, and 520230-1 brass drain tubing requires a flaring tool.
