Built in Taiwan with zinc-plated metal and a ball-valve mechanism, it provides a corrosion-resistant finish and a tight seal for on\/off control. The 90° outlet makes hose routing neater in confined spaces while the single outlet configuration keeps installation straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will this petcock fit my fuel system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe valve uses a 1\/4\"-18 NPT male thread, so it threads directly into tanks or fittings that accept a 1\/4\" NPT port. The outlet is a 1\/4\" barb sized for standard 1\/4\" fuel hose, creating a secure push-on connection when paired with a clamp. Its compact 90° orientation helps route lines without sharp bends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread: 1\/4\"-18 NPT male—fits matching 1\/4\" NPT ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutlet: 1\/4\" barb—compatible with 1\/4\" fuel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOrientation: 90° outlet—improves hose routing in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnection: use a hose clamp for leak-free attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials and construction can I expect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis petcock is zinc-plated for improved corrosion resistance and longevity compared with plain metal parts.
