GROCO's design for the imported valves
series specified a high-grade stainless steel valve stem.
We have discovered that the stem material used in some of the valves
manufactured between 2004 and 2006 may not have complied with our specifications.
Valves with out-of-spec stems may not be suitable for salt-water use.
Since the non-compliant silver color stems may fail when the valve is
actuated we wish to have all such valves removed from service. GROCO
will supply replacement valves at no charge.
WHAT YOU
SHOULD DO:
-
Visually inspect the valve(s) on your boat. If
the valve has a stainless steel stem (silver color), the valve
should be replaced during the next scheduled haul-out.. Valves
with a brass stem (yellow color) require no further action.
