• Lever control operates by cam principle and provides variable flow from trickle to full force
• Draw straps are made of 1040 hot rolled steel which is much harder (Brinell 175/200) and stronger, greatly reduces wear of straps and eliminates side pull on operating rod
• Stainless steel operating rod is ground and polished and will not cut out packing and packing nut, like brass rod used by other companies, best material for longest operating life
• Heavy duty hose adapter threaded for standard 3/4 in hose coupling
• Extra thick walled head casting greatly reduces breakage and insures longer life
• Pivot connector with two nuts provides simple positive adjustment and eliminates unreliable set screws
• No exposed threads on galvanized rod and threads on galvanized pipe are coated with bitumastic to prevent rusting and prolong life of hydrant
• Extra thick walled valve body to insure longer life and trouble free service
• Patented plunger arrangement ensures even flow from trickle to full force, closes drain at Any Flow® rate and opens drain in off position to prevent freezing
• Krayton G cup seals provides a much longer life than leather, close tolerance uniformity, unaffected by chemicals and passed a 1 million cycle test
