TracTuff H Series Water Pipe Delete

Description

The TracTuff Water Pipe Delete came about from experimenting with some components I had made for other product and ultimately falling down the rabbit hole.

I had received a request to make a water pipe delete for the B Series but could not see my way through that project. With the idea in my head, I decided to to see if I could apply the strategy to the H Series being it had a large bore in the block. The large bore paid off!

The custom o-ringed nut installs from the water pump side and seals against the bore in the block. The XXL -16 male flare fitting threads into the special o-ringed nut from the water pipe side, where the flange pushes against the block and pulls the nut into it and seats the fittings o-ring into the nut.

NOTE: I recommend using silicone o-ring grease to aid in assembly and blue thread locker on the threads. The kit includes a custom 35mm hex tool with a 3/8″ drive. Not shown.
