Sea-Dog Poly Collector Box, 4 Inch Hose Hole, Left Hand, ABS Ventilation Fitting 331298
The Sea-Dog 331298 Collector Box is an ABS ventilation fitting designed to work with a louvered vent to move air intake and exhaust through a boat's cabin or compartment structure. It is built for a 4 inch hose attachment hole with a friction-fit spiral wire hose connection, and it is configured with a left hand hose hole orientation as viewed from the rear side, so it must be matched to the correct mounting side when ordering. The unit is constructed of impact resistant vacuum formed ABS, giving it a durable, lightweight housing that resists cracking and corrosion in a marine environment. It offers a vent area of 9.68 square inches, providing solid airflow for the hose size. The 331298 is intended for use with either the Sea-Dog stainless steel Louvered Vent (331290) or the Sea-Dog injection molded ABS Louvered Vent (337290), both sold separately, allowing the collector box to be paired with the vent finish that matches the rest of the boat's hardware. Its compact footprint measures 12-1/4 inches by 3-5/8 inches by 5 inches, making it suitable for mounting in confined spaces below deck or behind panels. Because Sea-Dog also produces 3 inch and right hand versions under different part numbers, boat owners should confirm hose size and hand orientation before ordering to avoid receiving the wrong configuration.
