Today we're going to be taking a look at the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve. This value is an inch and a half bladex valve. It's going to allow you to replace, repair or upgrade to a new, dependable valve system. It's going to feature a die-cast, aluminum handle that's very strong and durable. It's also going to feature a stainless steel shaft that's going to be highly resistant to rust and corrosion, and that's also very strong and durable. Now bladex valves are interchangeable. It'll work with most other brands. It does come with the necessary items to get it installed, so you're going to get brand new seals, one for each side.
Then you're going to get brand new nuts and bolts for the installation. Now the seals are made from santoprene construction that's designed to resist chemicals and corrosion. When you're ready to install the unit, you'll need to remove your old valve and old seals and place your new seals over the lip over the existing flange fittings. If you look closely on the flange when you remove the old seals, you'll notice that there's a groove that those seals are actually going to sit in. Once you get those in place, you want to be careful not to dislodge the seals when you're inserting your new valve.
Then once you have everything set, everything in place, you can go in and install your hardware and tighten everything down. A few measurements that I want to go over with you real quick in regards to the valve system. Right here is the overall length with it in the closed position, that's going to give us a measurement of about six and a half inches. It's just got really nice operations so when you're ready to open up the waste system the handle's very easily accessible, it's got an easy-grip T-shape design to it, and it's just got a nice, smooth operation so you can open and close the valve as needed. With it in the open position, overall length is now extended to about eight and five eighths of an inch. The width of the unit, we're looking at about two and seven eighths, thickness is going to be five eighths of an inch thick.
Now the mount hole design on the unit, it's going to be a square design. Those are separated on center by two and a half inches. It's going to be the same between each hole. If we take a measurement of the actual opening, just the diameter, it's going to measurement about one and three quarters of an inch. That's going to do it for today's look at the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve.

Replaces the valve for your RV's gray-water tank. 1-1/2" Diameter passage allows wastewater to travel freely when valve is open. Valve body, seals, nuts, and bolts included.Easy to install. Has a much better handle than the stupid plastic that came from the factory, that broke. Just be sure you drain the tank first
Noticed the valves were leaking while winterizing. Won't replace them until we next travel. I've used Valterra in the past, and know of their quality.
Delivery was on time and installation was successful
Old valves were leaking and i was tired of always having a bucket to catch the leak when i opened the 3 inch cap.
2 down one to go as the black tank valve is holding strong.
Works good, no leaks.
The items were shipped right away and they were exactly what I ordered. I have not installed them yet, but I do not anticipate any problems as it looks like they have everything that I will need included.
Valve works great. Easy to open and close. Does not leak. Easy installation.
I just recently purchased an (OLD) 1988 ALPENLITE, 25+2 Fifth wheel camp trailer. As
you would expect "the old girl needs some TLC". I am a new customer to etrailer & so far their service has been "GREAT" !!!!!!!!!!. The customer service ladies I have dealt w/
have both been very help full.
I just received my order this afternoon. Very surprised at the speed with which it was delivered. I am in the process of rebuilding a older5th wheel and the items that were ordered are just perfect for the job.
Thank-you etrailer I will be back
Worked great as a direct replacement. Functions as advertised. I recommend this product.
Valterra Bladex Waste Valves, fit and function was perfect. If you have one or more waste tanks, save yourself some time and replace all the waste valves, instead of just one. For the price, be there one time and its done.
I installed both grey water and sewer valves and it was a fairly simple job. The valves fit perfectly and I am happy with the Valterra valves.
The drain valve came well packed, it had all the new hardware for mounting it. It was easy to install and works as advertised with no problems.
Got my new valve and handle extensions, worked like a champ.. thx
I have always been more than satisfied with products and service I have received when dealing with etrailer.com.
It arrived in a short time and I replaced the flush valve in a matter of minutes. It was a simple change over and perfect fit.
I have ordered several items from retailer and have had satisfaction with each item purchased.
I will always buy from retailer each time I need something in a hurry without worrying about I fit will fit.
Keep up the good work, and your items are good quality.
Sincerely, Curtis M.
After a year of use, this replacement still works perfectly. It's easy to slide in and out and most important, it does not leak between dumps!
Valve was fine, my handle was broken. Bought the new and the handle was easily replaced to old valve.
I have not installed it yet but it looks great and given that I am replacing one with a broken plastic handle this metal one should be great..
Product and service from etrailer was excellent as usual.
Thank you for providing exactly the product I needed.
Always feel confident in etrailer.
