Pool Bulkhead Fitting 1-1/2

The Hayward BFA1015CES is a gray PVC bulkhead tank fitting with a 1-1/2 inch pipe size and FNPT x Socket connections. It installs through a 2 21/32 inch hole and accommodates wall thicknesses up to 2 inches with an overall length of 4 inches.

Installers needing a sealed tank penetration

This fitting suits pool and spa plumbing where a watertight pass-through is required at the stated pressure and temperature limits. It is not for buyers who need a different pipe diameter, a slip x slip connection style, or a fitting rated above the listed maximum pressure.

Pressure and temperature headroom

The EPDM gasket seals against the tank wall at pressures up to 150 psi and handles continuous water temperatures between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Headroom decreases if operating near the upper temperature limit while under maximum pressure.

Questions about this item

What size hole must I already have cut in the tank wall for the 2 21/32 in required opening?

Drill a 2 21/32 in diameter hole through the tank wall before installing the bulkhead fitting.

Will the EPDM gasket seal reliably on a tank wall up to 2 in thick?

Yes, the fitting accommodates wall thicknesses up to 2 in and the EPDM gasket maintains a watertight seal across that range.

How can I confirm the joint holds at the 150 psi rating after assembly?

Pressurise the system to 150 psi and inspect the FNPT and socket connections for any leakage.
