Compatibility and Fitment
This breather suits 13mm fuel hose and a 19mm hull hole. The low external profile helps avoid snags, while the 90° bend up directs the hose vertically for self-draining runs. Check available space for 68mm intrusion. Part Number (ID) 200528.
Compliance and Safety
The integrated stainless gauze acts as a flame arrestor, supporting safe venting. Always position breathers above the maximum heeled waterline and use approved fuel hose. After installation, pressure-test the tank system according to workshop practice.
