Valterra-TC372 Flexible Cable Kit with 3" Valve, Mess-Free Waste Valve for RV's, Campers, Trailers, Black ( universal fit)

Installed two of these to replace leaking waste valves in my Winnebago Navion 24d. Probably just needed to replace the seals but went ahead and did the whole valve.

Used this vavle as an upgrade for failed oem waste valve. More rugged and smoother remote operator. Direct bolt in installation.

The valve comes with easy to follow instructions. I used the bolt method to separate the flags to remove the failed valve and install the new valve. Overall it takes about 45 minutes to remove the old valve, install the new valve, and test the new valve.

The valve is NOT a direct replacement for grand design campers, but works fine. Our 2022 23LDE required trimming the sides of the black tank flanges to allow the valve side pieces to slip over the flanges. It’s easy enough to do with a utility knife, just needs to be done before the valve can be installed. The cable length is good also. Tip: empty and flush the tank before you start and raise the front to keep residual water from draining out. Regarding the reviews mentioning the gaps on the side of the gate valve, that’s the way it is supposed to be. The rubber gaskets cover the gap and seal completely. If it’s leaking, the seals are not properly installed.

I bought one of these in 3", and one in 1.5" so that both tanks are covered.Not difficult to set up. The key is to have everything laid out before you start. Also, knowing where these go, be sure and get yourself a good breathing mask to fit over your face and nose. Protect all exposed skin.If you can, get a full face plastic face mask.Rubber/latex gloves are a must. You want to rinse these tanks thoroughly prior to replacing them. In addition, most of the cables on these are going to be far longer than you need. I built a small box enclosure (Because I am a Full-Timer) set the cables up to go through the floor of the box and out the top. You will likely have to cut a portion of the cable to prevent kinking it. Prior to actually hooking them up, I took a can of white grease with spray top and coated the cables and connectors with it. I then took a small propane torch (The kind where a hand sized bottle of propane screws onto it, and it has a piezo lighter built onto it) And lightly warmed the length of cable until the white lithium grease melted down into the cable. Fasten the T handles to the top of the box, leaving the amount of spacing the manufacturer specified and hook them to the pull slides. Night and day difference!

I bought two of these now because that is about all that is out there. I wish they come in different cable lengths. It is really hard to ties the extra down to something to keep it from bowing when pushing in. There nothing to tie too! One works great because it runs along the trailer frame and is the right length. The other one just bows, so it doesn't get closed completely!

Did not fit on my plumbing. Is not a universal part. Had LaSalle Bristol brand and that’s what I had to use to replace. What a disappointment.

I was reading through the reviews and I just wanted to educate some of you! It's supposed to have those gaps!!!! The valve is a slide gate, not a solid plug Those channels: Reduce friction when the gate slides Let debris pass instead of jamming the valve Help the blade move between the rubber seals 👉 The real seal happens at the round rubber gasket, not the plastic face you’re seeing.
