TruDesign Load Bearing Collar
Reinforce your TruDesign through‑hull assembly with the TruDesign Load Bearing Collar, a high-strength composite safety upgrade made in New Zealand. Crafted from glass-reinforced nylon, this collar provides shrouded protection and strength to meet the American ABYC H‑27 static load test—supporting 227 kg (500 lb) at the hose tail for 30 seconds
Available in sizes for ⅞" to 2" assemblies, it enhances the mechanical toughness of the skin fitting-ball valve-hosetail stack without requiring hull bolts or backing plates. Lightweight, electrolysis-resistant, and compatible with all hull materials, it ensures your vessel meets ABYC safety standards and stays reliable in rough conditions.
