Forespar 906031 Marelon Hose Tailpipe Mushroom Head Thru-Hull with Nut & Screen

The Forespar 906031 is a marine-grade thru-hull fitting featuring a mushroom head design with integrated hose tailpipe, constructed from high-strength glass-reinforced Marelon composite material. This versatile fitting is suitable for installation both above and below the waterline, making it ideal for a variety of marine plumbing applications including livewell systems, bilge pump discharges, and raw water intakes.

Key Features:

• High-strength glass-reinforced Marelon construction resists corrosion and electrolysis
• Mushroom head design with integrated strainer screen prevents debris entry
• Includes mounting nut and protective screen for complete installation
• Suitable for above or below waterline applications
• White finish for clean, professional appearance
• Model CF253S configuration with hose tailpipe connection

Installation Notes:

• Must be installed with proper marine-grade bedding compound for watertight seal
• Recommended maximum torque setting: 20 lb-ft to prevent damage to composite material
• Marelon material eliminates the need for bonding in electrical systems

Marelon composite fittings offer superior performance compared to traditional bronze fittings, with no risk of galvanic corrosion, dezincification, or electrolysis. The non-conductive properties make them an excellent choice for modern marine electrical systems.
