\nThe Skin Fitting with Hosetail body and nut are moulded from glass-reinforced nylon composite. High strength, high-modulus glass fibres within the nylon composite provide dramatic strength, stiffness, toughness and dimensional stability. These properties allow a significant weight reduction over metallic fittings.
\nTruDesign Skin Fittings with Tails eliminate the corrosion and electrical bonding problems associated with metallic fittings.
\nAll Skin Fittings are supplied with a nylon washer to increase locknut support on the hull.
\n
\n\n \nTruDesign Skin Fittings with Tails are certified by the International Marine Certification Institute (IMCI) & Bureau Veritas to meet; ISO 9093-2 Small craft — Seacocks and through-hull fittings — Part 2: Non-metallic \n \n
\n \nFor below waterline applications, see our Domed Skin Fittings or Skin Fittings Recessed product ranges (as a Ball Valve must be directly attached to the Skin Fitting for safety and compliance to marine standards). \n \n \n
