1/2" Bulkhead Fitting FNPT x FNPT

The Hayward BFAS1005TES is a PVC bulkhead tank fitting designed for plumbing drain and trap installations. It connects through curved or flat tank walls using female threaded ports on both sides. The gray fitting includes an EPDM gasket and requires no bolt holes for mounting. It suits pool, spa, or fluid-transfer systems needing a watertight pass-through.

Female threaded connections on both sides

The fitting accepts 1/2 inch NPT pipe threads internally and externally, allowing direct connection to threaded pipe or adapters on either side of the tank wall. Its zero-bolt-hole design simplifies installation on compatible curved or flat surfaces. The EPDM gasket seals against the tank without additional hardware, freeing up space inside the vessel and reducing potential leak paths.

Installers needing a straight-threaded tank

This unit suits technicians who need a 1/2 inch female-threaded bulkhead with a 150 psi rating at 70 Degrees F and an operating range of 40 to 140 Degrees F. It is not for systems requiring bolted flange connections, larger pipe sizes, or materials other than PVC. Buyers needing a male-threaded outlet, a different gasket material, or a higher pressure rating should look at alternative fittings.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum continuous pressure the BFAS1005TES bulkhead fitting can withstand at 70 degrees?

The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi at 70 degrees Fahrenheit, which is the limit encountered first during sustained pressurised use.

How does the PVC material handle heat during all-day operation near its temperature ceiling?

PVC construction remains stable up to the 140 degrees Fahrenheit maximum operating temperature, with no additional cooling required for continuous duty within that range.

What piping does the 1/2 inch FNPT x FNPT fitting connect to without extra adapters?

Both ports accept standard 1/2 inch male NPT threaded pipe, so the fitting joins two male-threaded sections directly.
