Groco PTHC-1500 Bronze 90 Degree Pipe to Hose Adapter, 1-1/2 Inch NPT x 1-1/2 Inch Hose, Standard Flow
The Groco PTHC-1500 is a 90 degree bronze pipe-to-hose adapter built for standard flow plumbing runs where a rigid NPT pipe connection needs to transition into flexible hose. Cast in solid bronze for corrosion resistance in onboard marine plumbing systems, this elbow fitting joins a 1-1/2 inch NPT pipe thread on one end to a 1-1/2 inch inside diameter hose barb on the other, with the 90 degree bend allowing the hose run to change direction without a separate elbow and hose clamp assembly. It is commonly installed alongside thru-hull fittings and strainers, routing water into or out of a hull fitting through hose rather than rigid pipe.
The bronze construction gives the fitting a durable, corrosion-resistant finish suited to continuous exposure to raw water and marine environments. The standard flow design (as opposed to a full-flow bore) is sized for typical onboard plumbing demands such as washdown, bilge, or raw water intake and discharge lines. The fitting measures 6.25 x 6.25 x 6.5 inches overall and weighs 0.95 pounds.
