Short on space and need to add a vacuum line? Or, maybe you need an easily accessible place to add a probe or bung for a gauge you just installed. This new Silicone Port System is a great universal product that will allow you to add a port to your silicone couplers. Installs in minutes and will hold up to 50psi!
Works on silicone couplers sizes 2.0" to 3.0". Can also be installed in the legs of most silicone elbows in that size range.
Comes with the hardware shown:
Installation is easy! Just cut a hole in your silicone coupler (sold separately), place the black ring around the threaded portion of the port system, then slide the threaded portion through the hole you cut from the inside of the coupler, put the retaining ring on top, and tighten the nut. The flexibility of the coupler puts some pressure on the nut keeping it tight; however, the use of some epoxy on the nut is highly recommended since the nut falling off could have disastrous consequences. This Silicone Port System will give you a 1/2" NPT Female fitting in your silicone coupler, which you can then install any of our 1/2" NPT adaptors into, giving you an AN fitting or a barb fitting in a number of sizes.
