This is a replacement for the original freshwater tank cap found in many Jeanneau boats.

Just like the original cap you must use it with a 120 x 8 mm O-ring.

The original is a plastic injection part that threads on the the polyethylene tank opening and presses the 120 x 8 mm O-ring. Initially I tried to make an exact copy of the original cap but after many tests I found that when the tank was brim full it leaked, so I changed a little bit the design to improve the sealing of the O-ring and now is totally watertight.

However 3D printed parts, even when printed at 100% infill and many perimeters, are normally not waterproof when subject to pressure, so I suggest post processing by impregnating it with epoxy resin.


Please note that this is not the original part from the shipyard, so you must use it at your own risk. I recommend performing leak tests, especially when the tanks are filled to capacity.
