24. DRAIN COCKS.

_a._ Four brass drain cocks, each with lever handle and of one-half

inch bore, are to be provided, and located one on each end of each

steam cylinder.

Care should be taken to select a pattern of cock whose passageway is

the full equivalent of a 1/2-inch hole. Some patterns of 1/2-inch

commercial cocks although threaded for 1/2-inch pipe thread have but

a 1/4-inch hole through them. Such are not acceptable.
