TruDesign Monitored Ball Valve
Ball Valve with remote position monitor
Ball Valve with remote position monitor
TruDesign Ball Valves and Skin Fittings are approved by IMCI & Bureau Veritas to ISO standard 9093-2.
Made from glass reinforced polymer for high impact and tensile strength resulting in light weight and total freedom from corrosion and electrolysis issues.
The positioned monitored range are wired to give electronic indication of the on off position of the valve. They can be easily wired to engine ignition switch to ensure that engine cannot be started whilst water intake valve is off.

TruDesign Non Return Valves
Non return valve for fresh and salt water
Non return valve for fresh and salt water
TruDesign Non-Return Valves (Check Valves) are ideal for applications such as bilge pumps (stops water flowing back and keeps pumps primed). Prevents air locks and ensures water travels in one direction.
Very low opening pressure (cracking) - 0.23 psi for 38mm 0.45 psi for 19mm. Comes in six sizes - 50mm (2"), 38mm (1½"), 32mm (1¼"), 28mm (1?"), 25mm (1"), and 19mm (¾").

TruDesign Aquavalve 3 Way Diverting (Y) Valve
Used for diverting marine toilet effluent
Used for diverting marine toilet effluent
The TruDesign Aquavalve 3 way diverting valve is the most versatile valve on the market. Easily installed to allow efficient routing of hoses to minimise blockages and tight bends. Inlet and outlet tails can be customised for size and bend - 90 degree straight or 120 degree.
Has lock feature as required by maritime law to prevent accidental discharge.

TruDesign Skin Fittings (Thru-Hulls)
Through Hull Skin Fittings
Through Hull Skin Fittings
TruDesign ranges of Skin Fittings are the first composite through hull fitting to be certified by the International Marine Certification Institute (IMCI) Belgium as well as Bureau Veritas for use below the waterline.
Designed and made in New Zealand, the Skin Fitting body and nut are moulded from glass fibre reinforced nylon composite. High strength, high-modulus glass fibres provide dramatic strength, stiffness, toughness and dimensional stability. These properties allow a significant weight reduction over
