Nylon M20 Drain Plug Breather by Stahlin

CAD Drawings

Description

The Nylon M20 Drain Plug Breather is designed to mitigate pressure differentials in sealed enclosures caused by temperature variation, which can result in cyclic air exchange and the introduction of moisture-laden air. The device provides passive pressure equalization through controlled bidirectional airflow while allowing accumulated condensate to drain from the enclosure, reducing internal moisture buildup. Installed in a standard M20 threaded opening, typically at the lowest point of the enclosure or conduit system, it supports effective liquid removal and minimizes pooling. Constructed from non-metallic nylon for corrosion resistance, the fitting is suitable for use in wet and outdoor environments and contributes to maintaining enclosure integrity and long-term reliability.
