Forespar Tailpipe Tailpipes/Hose Adapters

Forespar Marelon® Hose Adapter –

The Forespar Marelon® hose adapter (tailpipe) is the ideal solution for securely joining hose to Forespar seacocks and ball valves. Precision-engineered from Forespar’s proprietary Marelon® composite polymer, this fitting delivers long-lasting performance in demanding marine environments.

• Strength & Durability: With abrasion and UV resistance comparable to bronze and more than ¾ of its strength, Marelon® provides outstanding reliability. Unlike metal, it offers 100% corrosion resistance, ensuring worry-free use in saltwater systems.

• Superior to Plastics: Stronger than nylon and other plastics, Marelon® is trusted by professional boatbuilders and serious cruisers worldwide.

• Thread Design: Features NPSM parallel (straight) threads, requiring a proper sealant such as thread compound or Teflon® tape for a watertight connection.

• Compatibility: Works with Forespar valves and seacocks as well as any marine valve or fitting with NP parallel threads.

Built for performance and safety, Forespar Marelon® fittings are a smart upgrade over bronze or nylon, making them a go-to choice for thru-hulls, valves, and critical marine plumbing applications.
