1.75in Hose Ext. W/P Fitting - Polished

The 1.75in Hose Extension with Polished Water Pump Fitting from Meziere is a precision engineered connector designed for high-performance cooling system installations. Built specifically for Meziere 100 Series water pumps, this fitting bridges the gap between rigid NPT plumbing and flexible hose runs, making it an essential component for custom cooling loops in racing engines and modern performance builds. The polished aluminum construction delivers both durability and visual appeal in engine bays where appearance matters as much as function.

This straight adapter features a 1 inch NPT male thread on one end, which mates directly to factory or aftermarket water pump outlets, and a 1-3/4 inch hose barb on the opposite end to secure braided coolant hoses with hose clamps. The extended design provides additional clearance in tight engine compartments, reducing the stress on hose connections and allowing for cleaner routing around headers, manifolds, and intake components. Aluminum construction keeps weight minimal while the polished finish resists corrosion and maintains appearance over extended use in street and strip applications.

Builders installing Meziere pump kits in LS engines, small-block Chevrolets, Ford platforms, and other performance applications will find this fitting indispensable for transitioning from the pump's hard-plumbed outlet to flexible silicone or braided hose runs. The NPT male thread ensures a secure seal without additional adapters, while the barb design grips hose securely when coupled with quality worm-gear clamps. Proper installation requires hand-tightening the NPT connection and securing the hose with two clamps positioned close to the fitting to prevent coolant weeping under pressure.
