Pool Bulkhead Fitting 1-1/4" FNPT x Socket

This PVC bulkhead fitting connects a 1-1/4 inch female threaded pipe to a 1-1/4 inch socket connection on curved or flat tank walls. It is intended for pool and spa plumbing installations where a watertight penetration through the vessel wall is required. The gray finish matches standard PVC piping systems.

Gray PVC Construction With EPDM Gasket

The fitting body is moulded from PVC and includes an EPDM gasket that seals against the tank surface without bolt holes. Rated for 150 psi at 70 degrees F, it operates between 40 and 140 degrees F, making it suitable for typical heated pool circulation lines. The socket end accepts solvent-weld pipe for a permanent joint.

Direct Tank Penetration Without Additional Hardware

Supplied as a single fitting with integrated gasket, it eliminates the need for separate flanges or backing rings on compatible tank thicknesses. The female threaded interior allows straightforward connection to pumps, filters or valves using standard NPT fittings. No extra seals or adhesives are included for the socket joint.

Questions about this item

What pressure does the 150 psi @ 70°F rating limit in practice?

The fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi measured at 70 degrees F, which sets the upper limit for system pressure at that temperature.

What tank wall thickness and hole size does the 1-1/4" bulkhead need to mount?

The fitting mounts on curved or flat tank walls with zero bolt holes required; the socket and threaded ends both accept 1-1/4 inch connections.

How is the FNPT x Socket bulkhead installed, and what step is often missed?

Insert the body through the tank opening, seat the EPDM gasket against the wall, then tighten the female NPT side; the socket end is solvent-cemented to pipe.
