Uflex R8B Hydraulic Dual Hose Bulkhead Fitting – Black
Route both hydraulic steering hoses through a single bulkhead penetration with a clean, waterproof finish. The Uflex R8B dual hose bulkhead fitting is designed for use with pre-assembled hydraulic hoses, providing a secure, watertight thru-bulkhead connection that protects hoses from chafe and keeps the installation looking professional. The black finish blends cleanly into most boat interiors and engine compartments.

Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The R8B is the right fitting when you want to route both hydraulic hose lines through a single, clean bulkhead opening rather than drilling two separate holes. This is a common approach on center consoles and offshore boats where the helm and engine compartment are separated by a structural panel — the dual-hose design keeps the installation tidy and minimizes the number of penetrations in the bulkhead. The key difference from the Uflex R7 Bulkhead Fitting Kit is that the R7 uses two separate single-hose fittings, while the R8B combines both lines into one fitting body — a cleaner solution when space allows. Pair with the appropriate Uflex hydraulic hose kit for your run length to complete the installation.
