SEACHOICE Fuel Tank Vent Chrome 5/8 in. USCG Approved

Overview

Designed for marine fueling reliability, the SEACHOICE chrome fuel tank vent helps ensure a steady flow as you top off the tank. Forged from chrome-plated zinc, it resists corrosion in salt air and spray, while a stainless-steel flame arresting screen helps block debris and contaminants from entering the vent path. This combination of materials and design supports longer service life in demanding boat environments and aligns with common marine installation standards.

Key benefits

• Corrosion resistance provided by chrome-plated zinc construction.
• Stainless-steel flame arresting screen shields the fuel system from contaminants.
• Integrated hose barb enables direct connection to a 5/8 inch vent hose.

This vent also features a wide-flanged locking nut for secure mounting and includes the manufacturer part number 50-23011 for easy identification and replacement.

Design and installation

The unit is engineered for marine environments and carries a USCG-approved designation reflected in its listed status. It is compatible with standard 5/8 inch vent hoses and is built to withstand the vibrations and moisture common on boats. The hose barb and locking nut design simplify retrofits and OEM replacements, making it a practical upgrade for older vessels or new builds.

• Wide-flanged locking nut provides stable attachment on deck or bulkhead.
• Hose barb supports a secure connection to 5/8 inch vent hose.

Real-world use scenarios include topping off fuel at docks, replacing older vents on inboard or outboard tanks, or upgrading to a more robust chrome finish. While results vary, users may notice smoother fueling, reduced fuel surge during fill, and easier maintenance when inspecting the vent screen. For routine care, inspect the flame arresting screen for obstructions and check the hose connection for tightness. This product represents SEACHOICE’s commitment to quality marine accessories that are designed to be affordable replacements for fishing, boating, and watersports enthusiasts.
