6" Bulkhead Fitting for Tank Connections
This Hayward BFA1060CES bulkhead fitting connects a 6-inch female threaded port to a 6-inch female socket on curved or flat tank walls. It is built from gray PVC with an EPDM gasket and requires no bolt holes for installation. The part suits pool, spa or industrial plumbing systems that need a reliable pass-through fitting.
Pressure and Temperature Limits
The fitting handles a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Its rated temperature range runs from a minimum of 40 degrees Fahrenheit up to a maximum of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. These limits define safe continuous operation for water circulation systems.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Under constant pressure at the upper temperature limit the PVC body and EPDM seal maintain their integrity without bolt reinforcement. The socket and threaded ends resist creep during prolonged thermal cycling between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. The design supports steady flow in permanent installations.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 6 inch bulkhead fitting with the socket connection?
Clean the socket and pipe, apply PVC primer and cement, insert the pipe fully with a quarter turn, and hold until the joint sets; the step often missed is allowing full cure time before pressurising.
What maintenance will the EPDM gasket on this trap require?
Inspect the EPDM gasket periodically for cracking or hardening; replace it if leaks appear or during scheduled system servicing.
At what pressure limit does the 150 psi rating at 70 degrees F become the governing factor?
The 150 psi at 70 degrees F rating is the maximum operating pressure; sustained use above this pressure or at higher temperatures will exceed the fitting's design limit.
