Sea-Dog Locking Diesel Hose Deck Fill, 1-1/2 Inch Hose, 316 Stainless Steel, Part 351321-1
The Sea-Dog 351321-1 is a locking hose-style deck fill built for diesel fuel systems using 1-1/2 inch fill hose. Its locking cap is designed to prevent fuel theft: the cap spins freely while in the locked position, and to unlock it the owner turns the included key until the keyhole lines up with the cap tabs. Two keys are supplied along with a cap attachment cable, so the cap stays tethered to the boat and cannot be misplaced during fueling.
The fitting is investment cast from 316 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant alloy suited to long-term saltwater exposure, giving the deck fill durability well beyond stamped or plated fittings. The cap measures 2-1/8 inches in diameter and threads onto a 11-1/2 NPSM straight thread pitch. The body is marked "Diesel" and color-coded per the international deck fill identification system, so crew and fuel dock staff can confirm the correct fuel type at a glance and avoid a costly misfueling.
Installation is straightforward: the deck fill mounts with three #10 flathead fasteners (fasteners not included), and it accepts standard 1-1/2 inch fill hose. Because a deck fill sits in an open fuel-vapor path, USCG regulations require a bonding wire be connected to the fitting to prevent sparking; installers should wire the bonding connection as part of the install. This deck fill is sold individually.
