Connector union designed to join hoses with internal diameters of 3/16'' and 1/4'' in nautical systems. Its shape facilitates onboard installations, allowing a watertight and durable transition between different flexible hose diameters.
Technical Specifications
- Compatibility: Suitable for hoses with internal diameters from 3/16'' to 1/4''.
- Main Use: Hose adaptation in water, fuel, or air systems.
- Material: Typically made of brass or naval bronze for maximum corrosion resistance (confirm exact material if critical for your application).
- Installation: Simple, through fitting and use of appropriate clamps to avoid leaks.
Advantages
- Allows quick adaptation of different hose sections.
- Avoids the need for complete pipe replacements.
- Compact and durable solution for marine environments.
Common Applications
- Freshwater and saltwater circuits.
- Fuel systems (check compatibility).
- Air or bilge lines.
Usage and Maintenance Tips
- Always use stainless steel clamps to ensure tightness.
- Periodically inspect connectors for signs of corrosion or leaks.
