Whitecap 6006C 316 Stainless Steel 90 Degree Flush Fuel Vent

The Whitecap 6006C is a flush-mount fuel vent built from 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in marine environments. It is designed with a 90 degree angle and includes a shield, making it suited for routing fuel tank ventilation lines through a hull or deck surface where a low-profile, flush finish is wanted. The 316 stainless steel construction and brushed finish give it durability against saltwater exposure while maintaining a clean appearance on deck.

This vent accepts a 5/8 inch hose and has a 1-9/16 inch hole size for mounting. Its compact footprint and flush design make it a straightforward fit for boat builders and owners replacing an aging or corroded vent fitting. As a single-unit fitting, it installs into a pre-cut deck or hull opening matching its hole size specification.
