Why Choose the CPI 3" Hub Adaptor with O Ring?

When you're replacing or upgrading RV tank fittings, the quality of your hub adaptor directly impacts system reliability. The CPI 3" Hub Adaptor with O Ring eliminates common failure points found in inferior fittings. The integrated O-ring design creates a compression seal that maintains integrity even as your RV travels over rough roads. Unlike cheaper alternatives that rely solely on threaded connections, this hub adaptor's O-ring provides a secondary seal that prevents leaks before they start. CPI's reputation for manufacturing OEM-grade RV components means you're installing the same quality fitting that RV manufacturers trust in new production.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I install the CPI 3" Hub Adaptor?

Installation requires a 3.75" hole in your tank wall. Insert the hub adaptor from the inside of the tank, ensuring the O-ring is properly seated. Secure from the outside using the appropriate threaded connection or clamp. Always test for leaks before putting the tank into service.

Is this compatible with my RV's holding tank?
