Thru-hull fittings like this one are installed through the hull below or near the waterline to create a through-hull passage for hose connections, commonly used for livewell intakes, washdown pumps, bilge discharge, and other onboard plumbing runs that need to draw water from or discharge water to the outside of the boat. The 316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in both saltwater and freshwater environments, while the barbed fitting end is designed to accept 3\/4 inch hose and hold it securely with a hose clamp. The plastic component works alongside the stainless steel body as part of the packaged assembly. This part comes packaged as a complete unit, so boat owners have what is needed for a single thru-hull installation without having to source additional pieces separately. It is a straightforward, functional fitting suited to replacement of a worn or corroded thru-hull, or for adding a new plumbing through-hull point during a boat build or refit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whitecap Industries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e S-3801C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316 stainless steel and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barbed hose fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Packaged (complete fitting set)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thru Hull Fittings and Strainers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size hose does the Whitecap S-3801C thru-hull fitting accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e The barb on the Whitecap Industries S-3801C is sized for 3\/4 inch hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the S-3801C thru-hull fitting made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is built from 316 stainless steel and plastic, a combination chosen for corrosion resistance in marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Whitecap S-3801C sold as a complete kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the S-3801C is packaged as a complete thru-hull fitting assembly rather than sold as loose parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the S-3801C thru-hull fitting used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is used to create a through-hull passage below or near the waterline, typically for hose connections such as livewell intakes, washdown systems, or bilge discharge lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Whitecap Industries S-3801C weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The S-3801C weighs 0.1 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the S-3801C use a threaded or barbed hose connection?\u003c\/strong\u003e The S-3801C has a barbed connection designed to hold 3\/4 inch hose with a hose clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill 316 stainless steel on the S-3801C resist corrosion in saltwater?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, 316 stainless steel is a marine-grade alloy used specifically because of its corrosion resistance in saltwater as well as freshwater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the Whitecap S-3801C be used to replace an existing thru-hull fitting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, a 3\/4 inch thru-hull fitting like the S-3801C is suitable for replacing a worn or corroded thru-hull of the same size and connection type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat category of boat plumbing part is the S-3801C?\u003c\/strong\u003e The S-3801C falls under thru-hull fittings and strainers, the category covering hull penetrations for onboard water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Whitecap S-3801C genuine Whitecap Industries hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the S-3801C is a genuine Whitecap Industries part, identified by that manufacturer part number.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whitecap Industries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025296236763,"sku":"W-C-S-3801C","price":13.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/i_6ac79cd7-35af-4959-b01c-6544d267ec6f.jpg?v=1785349471","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/whitecap-industries-3-4-inch-316-stainless-steel-thru-hull-fitting-with-barb","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
