What makes up the valve assembly?
The replacement body contains the slide gate, stainless operating stem and body sealing surfaces. Matching gate seals sit on either side when the body is clamped between waste-pipe flanges. The manufacturer lists seals and fastening hardware with its carded T1002VP, T1003VP and T1003VPM kits. A body-only replacement does not supply a new 3-inch termination cap, new pipe elbows or a complete remotely operated cable assembly.
