PSS Shaft Seal Hose Barb Plug

The PSS Shaft Seal Hose Barb Plug is an essential maintenance component for boaters utilizing a through-hull shaft seal system. This plug acts as a protective barrier and diagnostic access point, allowing users to monitor the condition of the shaft seal and maintain system integrity without frequent checks in the bilge.

Designed specifically for PSS shaft seal systems, the hose barb plug connects directly to the cooling and lubrication line, ensuring a secure, leak-free interface. Its barb design allows for a tight grip on hose material, although the use of marine-grade hose clamps is recommended for added security in rough conditions.

Ideal for owners of cruising sailboats, trawlers, or offshore sportfishers, keeping replacement plugs on hand is a wise practice for sound seamanship. The lightweight component weighs just 1 pound, making it a practical spare for extended offshore passages where hardware failures can lead to significant challenges.
