Title: drain cock thread source?
Post by: Darth_Kitten on April 05, 2017, 07:18:19 PM

Hi All,
I'm looking for a replacement drain cock for the radiator, and I'm not having luck finding a source.
It's half inch diameter and NPT fine? Everything I come up with is 1/2-13 so far.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm ready to add coolant!

I have not checked my HT but.....Drain cocks should be pipe thread (npt) not standard fine or course thread.

As far as I know halftrack drain cocks were all 1/4"NPT (Nat'l Pipe Thrd) If any style will work for you I am sure a local parts store will have a drain cock with this thread. If you want the correct style I have those although they differ from the original in physical size (they are a bit smaller) they look the same and function the same. email for latest parts list kplockwood@cox.net
