Solid bronze construction resists corrosion from constant saltwater or freshwater exposure below the waterline, making it suitable for long-term below-the-waterline service. The barbed hose end allows a standard 1-1\/4 inch hose to be clamped securely in place, while the fitting mounts through a drilled hull opening and is secured from the inside with the included nut, sandwiching the hull material between the fitting head and the nut for a watertight, mechanically sound installation. At 4 inches long and 3 inches across, the HTH-1250 is sized for typical hull thicknesses found on recreational boats. Because it is bronze rather than plastic, it holds up to UV exposure, marine growth, and the mechanical stress of hose clamping better than lower-cost alternatives over time. This fitting is intended as a below-waterline through-hull for hose-connected systems and should be paired with an appropriate seacock or valve where shutoff capability is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Groco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e HTH-1250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\/Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05625 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mounting nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 742985005235\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat hose size does the Groco HTH-1250 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco HTH-1250 thru-hull fitting is barbed for 1-1\/4 inch hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the HTH-1250 made of bronze or plastic?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HTH-1250 is a bronze thru-hull fitting, chosen for its corrosion resistance in below-waterline marine applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HTH-1250 come with a mounting nut?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Groco HTH-1250 includes the nut needed to secure the fitting from the inside of the hull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the HTH-1250 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HTH-1250 weighs 1.05625 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the HTH-1250 thru-hull fitting?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco HTH-1250 measures 4 inches long by 3 inches wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the HTH-1250 be used below the waterline?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the bronze construction of the HTH-1250 is intended for below-waterline use where ongoing water exposure and corrosion resistance matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HTH-1250 include a seacock or shutoff valve?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the HTH-1250 is the thru-hull fitting and nut only; a separate seacock or valve is needed where shutoff capability is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the HTH-1250 installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HTH-1250 passes through a drilled hull opening and is secured from the inside using the included nut, with hose clamped onto the barbed fitting on the outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose a bronze thru-hull like the HTH-1250 over a plastic one?\u003c\/strong\u003e Bronze construction, as used in the Groco HTH-1250, offers better long-term resistance to UV exposure and mechanical stress from hose clamping compared to plastic thru-hulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat systems is the HTH-1250 typically used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco HTH-1250 is used for hose-connected plumbing systems such as raw water intake, bilge discharge, or livewell drains.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Groco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031096828123,"sku":"GRO-HTH-1250","price":42.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/51EkBEiRSwL.jpg?v=1785208666","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/groco-bronze-thru-hull-fitting-with-nut-1-1-4-inch-hose-barb-hth-1250","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
