Hp-500 Cast For Drain Plugs?


Recommended Posts


I have not seen any that came from Keene drilled and tapped. I drilled and tapped a P180 before.  I was a little worried because the petcock didn't have a lot to grab on to.  This nub allowed me to cut a lot of threads.

I think I've had Keene pumps that were drilled and tapped?

Because "most" dredgers are fair weather dredgers.. you really only need a drain if you're going to be in freezing weather.  It's easy enough to do it yourself but big kudo's to Keene for putting a little more in the correct spot for the drain.

A little inside fyi.. Keene pumps might start coming with the intakes on the pump threaded so you can screw the intake hose on, that way you won't get any air.
