It uses a standard female swivel hose connector at the inlet, and the flange has a 2-3\/4 inch outside diameter with a #8 screw mounting pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is chrome-plated bronze, and the inlet closes with a black watertight plug on a stainless steel bead chain. That gives the fitting a clean way to stay sealed when the hose is disconnected, while keeping the plug attached instead of loose in a locker or cockpit box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch NPT pipe size for connection to onboard freshwater plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard female swivel hose connector for dockside water hookup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3\/4 inch flange outside diameter for planning the mounting footprint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#8 screw mounting pattern for a secure install at the inlet location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome-plated bronze body with a black watertight plug and stainless steel bead chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used for a dedicated dockside water connection, not as a deck fill for pouring water into a tank. Before ordering, check that your plumbing run is set up for a 1\/2 inch NPT connection, confirm the flange footprint, and make sure there is enough room outside the mounting surface for the hose connector to thread on and turn freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt works well on boats that spend regular time in marinas and want a fixed water inlet instead of feeding a temporary hose through a hatch or portlight. For cruisers, liveaboards, and other boats with frequent dock stays, it gives the water hookup a cleaner and more permanent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Perko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023092871349,"sku":"QBP594929","price":171.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1330342_qbp594929.jpg?v=1780191708","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp594929","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
