This Camec 10mm barb x 3/4 Mbsp breather fitting lets your water tank push air out instead of fighting backpressure. The 10mm barb suits breather hose with 10 mm internal diameter so you can route it up and out of the van wall. The 3/4 inch male BSP thread matches common Camec tank ports so the fitting screws straight into the tank body.

The blue plastic body keeps the weight down on a long-haul caravan setup and stands out in a crowded service hatch. The elbow sits at roughly 90 degrees so the hose runs close to the tank without sharp kinks. The hex section takes a standard spanner so you can nip it up without chewing the fitting. The plastic build handles normal freshwater tank pressures used in touring rigs across Australia.

Q: Can this breather be used on non-Camec water tanks?

Yes, as long as the tank has a 3/4 inch BSP female thread. The breather does not rely on any special Camec-only interface. Check your tank outlet size and thread type before you buy. If it matches 3/4 inch BSP, the fitting will screw in. Always confirm hose size so the 10mm barb suits your setup.

Q: What hose size fits the barb on this breather?

The barb suits hose with 10 mm internal diameter. This size is common on caravan and RV breather lines. A proper 10mm ID hose will grip the barb firmly when clamped. Oversized hose can leak or slip, so check the printed size on your hose. Adding a hose clamp gives a more secure connection.

Q: Is the plastic material suitable for constant outdoor exposure?

The breather uses plastic suited to normal caravan use but should be shielded from direct wheel spray and impact. Most tanks sit under the floor or inside lockers where the fitting is protected. Long-term UV on fully exposed fittings can shorten life. If your tank outlet is exposed, consider extra shielding or routing the hose to a sheltered point.

Q: Do I need thread tape on the 3/4 inch BSP connection?

Thread tape is recommended on the 3/4 inch BSP thread. The tape helps seal fine gaps between the plastic male thread and the tank’s female thread. Use tape rated for potable water systems. Wrap in the direction of tightening so it does not bunch up. Avoid overtightening so the plastic threads are not damaged.
