Pool System Connection

The Hayward BFA1020SES bulkhead fitting provides a watertight passage through a tank wall for 2-inch socket connections on both sides. It suits installers building or repairing filter housings, reservoirs or custom plumbing manifolds where a secure, removable joint is required. The grey PVC body with EPDM gasket handles curved or flat tank surfaces without additional bolt holes.

Installation Requirements

The fitting accepts solvent-weld socket pipe on the interior and exterior faces, so standard PVC primer and cement are the only consumables needed. Its zero-bolt design frees up tank wall space and reduces potential leak paths compared with flanged alternatives. The 150 psi rating at 70 Degrees F supports typical pool circulation pressures without extra reinforcement.

Sustained Service Behaviour

Under continuous operation the PVC body remains stable between 40 and 140 Degrees F, maintaining seal integrity through daily heating and cooling cycles. The EPDM gasket resists chlorinated water and common pool chemicals, preventing degradation that could cause weeping over months of pressurised service. The socket joints stay rigid under constant flow vibration, avoiding the loosening sometimes seen with threaded bulkheads.
