AQUAVALVE
The Tru-Design Aquavalve is the most versatile valve on the market today. The Aquavalve is
designed and made in New Zealand, for demanding marine sanitation applications.
The Aquavalve is typically used in marine toilet applications where protection for the environment
necessitates the need to control effluent discharge – in many countries this is governed by
regulation. The effluent can be held in a holding tank for later discharge overboard or to a shore
side facility.
The Tru-Design Aquavalve is moulded from a glass reinforced nylon composite. High strength,
high-modulus glass fibres impregnated into the nylon provides dramatic strength, stiffness,
toughness, and dimensional stability.

LONG THREAD TAIL
Designed and made in New Zealand, Tru-Design Long Thread Tails are the superior composite
connection for fitting hose to threaded fittings.
Tru-Design Tails are moulded from a glass reinforced nylon composite. High strength, high-
modulus glass fibres impregnated into the nylon provides dramatic strength, stiffness, toughness,
and dimensional stability.
Tru-Design Tails eliminate the corrosion and electrical bonding problems associated with metallic
fittings. The Tails are designed for twin hose clamps, and to not crush under high load conditions.

KEY FEATURES
F ature :
Manufactured from a glass reinforced
nylon composite
High strength and light weight.
Compatible with all hull types
Can be used on aluminum, steel, wood or FRP hulls.
Immune to corrosion and electrolysis
Long life with no concerns over decreased performance
due to corrosion.
Chemical resistant
Impervious to diesel, petrol and antifouling paints.
UV resistant
These fittings will not break down with ultraviolet light or
discolour from the sun.
High quality surface finish
Will not discolour with green film as similar bronze fittings
do.
Fits Tru-Design Ball Valves & BSPP
threads
Universal compatibility to other Tru-Design fittings, and
other marine components.
Large operating temperature range
Suitable for all marine environments, from -40°C to
+110°C.
SPECIFICATIONS
The connecting threads on the Tail are BSP (British Standard Pipe) and are parallel. These
parall l threads are designed so that thr ad tape is wound onto the tail then screwed into place.
The advantage of parallel threads rather than tapered is that there is maximum engagement
between the mating threads providing a strong and watertight seal.
Mixing parallel and tapered threads can cause strength and sealing problems as the engagement
can frequently be only a few turns.
