Self-extinguishing gas extractor tube 104 mm – code: 16.104.36 – Osculati

Self-extinguishing gas aspirator tube Ø 104 mm Osculati (code 16.104.36)

The self-extinguishing gas aspirator tube Osculati is a component designed for ventilation and aeration in the nautical field, with particular attention to the typical needs of engine compartments. Thanks to its flexible structure and the characteristics declared by the manufacturer, it is suitable for creating or restoring connections between extractors and air intake/discharge points, maintaining a neat and functional installation even in complex technical spaces.

This version is in diameter 104 mm and is offered as a replacement/integration for onboard ventilation systems where a specific tube is required for gas extraction and engine compartment ventilation.

Main features and details

Material and behavior in operation

• Heat resistant up to 130° (declared data).
• Self-extinguishing (declared data).
• Great flexibility, useful for following paths with curves and technical passages.
• Specifically made for engine compartment ventilation.

Format and configuration

• : Adjustable and closable nozzle: 104 mm.
• Lengths: from 10 m (indicated supply format).
• Supplier product code: 16.104.36.
• Supplier: Osculati S.r.l.

Indicated compatibility (for extractors)

The manufacturer reports the use for extractors with codes:

• 16.174.30
• 16.174.51

Note: compatibility is reported as per available indication. In case of doubt, check the diameter and system configuration before purchase.

Typical onboard applications

This tube is designed for contexts where ventilation must be reliable and suitable for a technical environment. In particular, it is used in:

• Engine compartment ventilation (ventilation and air exchange).
• Connections between vacuum and air ducts/outlets in ventilation systems.
• Localized maintenance or replacement of existing piping in onboard ventilation systems.

The combination of flexibility and declared features (heat resistance and self-extinguishing) make it suitable for installations where the path is not linear and where the tube must adapt to passages and spaces typical of technical compartments.

Operational advantages

Simpler installation in technical spaces

The very high flexibility facilitates the passage of the tube in areas with curves, bulkheads, and obstacles, reducing the need for improvised solutions or unnecessary fittings. This helps maintain a cleaner and more consistent system with the ventilation design.

Features targeted at the engine compartment

Being expressly made for engine compartment ventilation, it is a suitable choice when you want to use a component designed for the specific environment, with declared properties such as self-extinguishing and heat resistant up to 130°.

Practical spare management

Supply in 10 m sections it is useful for those who need to create complete runs or have tube availability for multiple interventions, maintaining uniform diameter and type throughout the system.

Usage and notes for selection

Checks before purchase

• Check the diameter 104 mm in relation to nozzles, fittings, and extractor.
• Check the correspondence with the indicated extractors (codes 16.174.30 and 16.174.51).
• Evaluate the laying path and available space: flexibility helps, but it is always advisable to plan an orderly and accessible route for future inspections.

General installation guidelines

In the absence of specific instructions in the available data, installation according to good onboard practices is recommended:

• Ensure a stable connection between the tube and system components (extractor, fittings, nozzles) with suitable fastening systems.
• Avoid crushing and kinking that could reduce the effective cross-section of the duct.
• Keep the tube away from sharp edges or rubbing points; where necessary, provide adequate protections or cable glands/seals.

Product identification

To facilitate spare management and correspondence with bills of materials or technical documentation, refer to:

• Osculati – code 16.104.36
• Ø 104 mm

If you are replacing an existing tube, it is advisable to compare diameter and intended use (engine compartment ventilation) to maintain consistency with the original system.
