Norwesco 60401 Bulkhead Fitting with Gasket 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The NORWESCO 60401 is a 3/4-inch bulkhead fitting with gasket designed to create a watertight port through the wall of a tank, reservoir, or sump. It provides a secure, leak-resistant connection point where piping must pass through a containment wall. The fitting and gasket are installed as a matched set, ensuring a proper seal against fluid migration. Licensed plumbers and water system technicians are the typical installers for this type of component in both residential and commercial fluid handling applications.

The NORWESCO 60401 is suited for use in potable water storage tanks, agricultural tanks, chemical containment vessels, and rainwater harvesting systems. It is commonly installed where a pipe inlet or outlet must penetrate a tank wall at the 3/4-inch nominal pipe size. The included gasket eliminates the need for sourcing a separate seal, making it a ready-to-install assembly for new tank setups or replacement service work.

Key Features

• 3/4-inch nominal size for standard pipe connections
• Includes matched gasket for a leak-resistant tank wall seal
• Designed for through-wall installation on tanks and reservoirs
• Suitable for residential and commercial fluid handling systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation bulkhead fitting for tanks and containment vessels requiring a 3/4-inch through-wall pipe connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or irrigation technician. Drain and depressurize the tank completely before cutting the wall penetration or removing an existing fitting. Follow IPC guidelines for tank fittings and ensure the gasket is seated evenly before tightening the locknut to avoid uneven compression and seal failure. Do not overtighten, as this can distort the gasket and compromise the seal.
