Quarter-Turn Boiler Drain Valve

The Value Brand 102-053HN is a brass quarter-turn boiler drain valve designed for residential and light-commercial plumbing systems. It provides a reliable shut-off point for water heaters, boilers and hydronic heating loops where a compact 1/4-turn ball valve is preferred.

Simple MIP x MHT Installation

The valve installs with standard pipe tools using the 1/2 inch male IPS inlet and 3/4 inch male GHT outlet connections. No soldering or special press tools are required. The main risk is cross-threading the tapered pipe threads or over-tightening the brass body, which can distort the ball seal and cause leaks.

Verify Thread Size and Temperature Rating

Confirm your piping uses 1/2 inch MIP threads at the drain port and that the system operates below 160 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 psi. The tee handle is aluminium, so ensure the installation location allows easy access for quarter-turn operation without excessive force.

Questions about this item

Turn the tee handle a quarter turn; water should flow from the 3/4 in GHT outlet and stop fully when the handle returns to closed.

What comes in the box and are any extra fittings required?

The valve itself is supplied; you will need 1/2 in IPS male pipe thread fittings for the inlet and a 3/4 in GHT male hose thread connection for the outlet.

Which connection combination matches my piping — MIP x MHT?

This model has a 1/2 in male IPS inlet and a 3/4 in male GHT outlet, meeting ANSI B1.20.1, B1.20.7, B16.18, ASME A112.18.1 and CSA B125.1.
