Quick-Release Hose Bulkhead Connector

Quick-Release Hose Bulkhead Connector for 8000, 8200, and 8300 Series Welders

The bulkhead connector connects the quick-release hose assembly to the nitrogen plastic welder. This bulkhead connector is used in Polyvance’s 8000 series, 8200 series, and 8300 series nitrogen plastic welders.

Please note: If you purchased an 8000 series or 8200 series nitrogen plastic welder built before September 2020 and need a bulkhead connector, you will need to upgrade to this improved design. This new bulkhead connector is not compatible with welders built before September 2020, and we no longer have bulkhead connectors available for those models. To upgrade your welder, you will need to order the Quick-Release Hose Retrofit Kit.

How Can I Tell if I Need to Upgrade?

To determine if you need the retrofit kit, first unscrew the metal collar at the base of your handle. Next, remove the handle from the hose and look at the connector. If the connector is the old style without the metal interlock, you must upgrade to the new style. If you have a new style connector with the metal interlock, you do not need the retrofit kit.
