Review on ๐Ÿ›ฅ๏ธ Stainless Steel Oval Boat Garboard Drain Plug by Amarine Made - Fits 1'' Hole, with 3/4'' Thread by John Langdon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Terribly hard gasket - bad gasket

I like it, but the red gasket is awful: hard and won't compress. The thread can only be turned 1/4 turn. Didn't pass the suction test - before installing it, he hand-tightened it with all his might, put it in his mouth and sucked; Not sealed. I wouldn't believe it the way it is. I replaced the red seal with a black O-ring. I got more revs and was able to compress the softer o-ring. Suction test passed. Now I trust it.

Pros
  • Bilge pumps
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
