Description
TruDesign Load Bearing Collars are designed for use with TruDesign Skin Fittings and Ball Valves.
With the Collar in place, the Skin Fitting-Ball Valve-Hose Tail assembly will withstand a 500 lb (227 kg) static force applied to the Hose Tail end of the assembly, for a minimum of 30 seconds – complying with North American ABYC H-27 standards.
Note: TruDesign 2″ Skin Fittings meet the requirements of H-27 500Lb standard (i.e. without a Large Collar installed). Adding a Large Collar to assemblies of this size increases the overall strength and protects the vulnerable exposed section of thread on the Skin Fitting.
FEATURES
ABYC H-27 500Lb compliance for ¾”, 1”, 1¼”, 1½”, and 2″ sized assemblies. Independently verified by IMANNA Laboratory, Inc. (USA).
Compact footprint
No additional bolts or fasteners through or on to the hull
Ability to retrofit to existing TruDesign assemblies
Compatible with all hull types across a wide range of hull thicknesses – download product info sheet above
Shrouded protection
Fool-proof assembly – if not snug when tightened the Skin Fitting’s length will need shortening. See info sheet.
