Bulkhead Fitting for Tank Installations

The Hayward BFA1007TES is a 3/4-inch bulkhead fitting designed to create a sealed pass-through on curved or flat tank walls. It uses female NPT threads on both the inside and outside connections and is built from grey PVC with an EPDM gasket for chemical compatibility in pool and spa plumbing systems.

Verify Thread Size and Pressure Rating

Before ordering, confirm that the piping or equipment you plan to connect uses 3/4-inch female NPT threads. The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi at 70 degrees F and has no bolt holes, so it relies solely on the threaded engagement and gasket compression for a watertight seal.

Sustained Temperature and Pressure Performance

Under continuous operation the fitting handles water temperatures between 40 and 140 degrees F while maintaining its pressure rating. The PVC body and EPDM gasket resist degradation from prolonged exposure to treated pool water, providing reliable sealing through seasonal heating cycles and constant hydraulic load without the stress relaxation seen in short-term test conditions.

Questions about this item

What comes with the BFA1007TES bulkhead fitting and what must be purchased separately?

The fitting includes the PVC body, EPDM gasket and 3/4" FNPT threads on both sides. Pipe, thread sealant and any tank-mounting hardware are not included.

How do I decide which version of the 3/4" bulkhead fitting to select?

Only the BFA1007TES model is offered here — gray PVC with EPDM gasket, rated 150 psi at 70 °F and 40–140 °F operating range.

What does the 150 psi rating mean when the fitting is installed in a tank?

It is the maximum non-shock pressure the joint can hold at 70 °F; at higher temperatures the allowable pressure drops below 150 psi.
