Cannot find something that works.
Looking for thru-hull fitting for our anchor drain. Need at least 2.5" length and OD of 1/2"
Can't find ANYTHING out there.
Obviously want stainless steel - but will consider plastic.
All threads that I have searched on JetBoaters - those parts won't work - not long enough.

Why can't you grind out enough on the inside for the shorter one to fit? Just large enough for the through hull.

Too short?

Thats’ the fitting that most have used for their anchor locker fixes…

Go look at:

Gemlux

T-H Marine

Marine East
 
Yes - bought that one. Not long enough. It is only 2 3/16"

What diameter do you need?

When you say you need at least 2.5”, is that the threaded portion or the overall length ?

the Out Side (OD) Diameter needs to be .5 inches. The Inside Diameter (ID) would be 3/8 inches. We need the threaded portion to be at least 2.5

This one is 2.4" in length..
 
How the hell? Thats the same one we bought at first and its no where near long enough!
Welp, I guess the hull on the 252 is much thicker.

Guess that is what the 252 means… 2.5” thick hull… ?

Couldn’t help that one… LOL!

Thanks but that one is 1/2" ID - making it much larger OD. I don't want to make the hole any larger than it is right now.
 
Ok...I thought the OD was 1/2 and the ID 3/8.
 
The Amazon one 100% works on a 252.
 
I had to work a little to make it work properly but it was the right one.
And you were able to get the nut on, yes? I'm wondering if he is getting it to fit flush.
