GROCO 2" NPT Bronze 45 Degree Pipe to 2" Hose

The GROCO 2" NPT Bronze 45 Degree Pipe to 2" Hose fitting is a crucial component for serious anglers and boaters who require dependable performance in challenging marine environments. This 45-degree elbow adapter connects rigid NPT pipe systems to flexible hose runs, making it perfect for seawater cooling loops, raw water intakes, and fuel or freshwater distribution on vessels where space or structural angles necessitate directional transitions.

Constructed from marine-grade bronze, the GROCO fitting offers superior corrosion resistance in saltwater and brackish conditions compared to brass or steel alternatives, ensuring long-lasting service without degradation. The 45-degree angle design minimizes flow turbulence and reduces stress on connected hose runs, which is particularly important in high-pressure or continuous-duty applications like engine cooling circuits. The NPT (National Pipe Thread) male connection on one end securely mates with standard bronze manifolds and pipe fittings, while the 2-inch hose barb on the opposite end accommodates marine-grade reinforced hose with stainless steel clamps for a leak-free seal.

This adapter is ideal for renovation projects, new builds, and retrofit installations on center consoles, sport fishers, and trawlers where plumbing must navigate confined engine compartments. Its robust design and reliable performance make it a valuable addition to any marine plumbing system, ensuring that your vessel operates efficiently and effectively.
