PERKO Vented Fuel Fill Hose: The All-in-One Solution for Safe and Efficient Marine Fueling

Streamline your boat´s fuel system and enhance safety with the innovative PERKO Vented Fuel Fill Hose. This all-in-one unit is expertly engineered to combine the fuel fill and tank vent into a single, compact, and easy-to-install deck fitting. Designed for modern vessels and compliant with stringent environmental regulations, this PERKO product eliminates the need for a separate vent thru-hull, reducing clutter on your deck and minimizing potential leak points. It represents a significant upgrade in both convenience and safety for any boat owner or builder.

The primary benefit of this integrated system is its ability to simplify installation while boosting performance. By requiring only one deck cutout instead of two, you save time, reduce labor, and maintain a cleaner, more professional look on your vessel. This intelligent design is crucial for meeting the latest EPA requirements for diurnal emission control systems, making it an essential component for new builds and refits alike. Trust in PERKO´s legacy of quality to provide a reliable, long-lasting solution for your boat´s critical fuel system.

Key Features and Design:

This advanced fuel fill system is packed with features designed for the modern boater:

Angled neck.

Integral tank vent with flame arrestor and anti-surge valve.

Deck plate key included.

Plastic body and cap.

The Angled neck is a thoughtful design element that provides greater flexibility during installation, easily accommodating various deck cambers and tight spaces for a perfect fit and optimal hose routing.

At the core of this product is the revolutionary Integral tank vent with flame arrestor and anti-surge valve. This feature is a game-changer for marine fuel safety. The integrated vent ensures your fuel tank can breathe properly, while the built-in flame arrestor provides critical protection by preventing any external sparks or flames from igniting fuel vapors within the tank. Furthermore, the anti-surge valve, also known as a spit-back valve, effectively prevents fuel from splashing back out of the fill during refueling or sloshing in rough water, keeping your deck clean and preventing fuel pollution.

Convenience is built-in, as a Deck plate key included means you have the necessary tool for opening and closing the cap right from the start. The tethered cap acts as a secure Stoppers mechanism, featuring a robust seal to prevent water intrusion and contamination of your fuel supply. This ensures the cap is never lost overboard and is always ready to secure your tank. The durable Plastic body and cap are constructed from high-grade, UV-stabilized materials specifically chosen for their resilience in the harsh marine environment, offering superior resistance to corrosion, fuel, and sun degradation.
