Tip breaks off every year.
Everything is fine until the end of the year when I remove my bag and disconnect the lines. At the end of where the rubber o ring is it breaks off every year.

If you have Straight Line Sumo, Sumo Max, or Big Bag ballast bags equipped with their 1" NPT threaded ports and you're installing an automated ballast system, this is the fitting you want.
Connect 3/4" Flow-Rite female quick connect fittings (see recommended accessories) straight to the bag for a secure water-tight connection that is easily removed. Also available in a 1" Flow-Rite version for connection to 1" or 1-1/8" hose.
Includes all o-rings to make a proper seal between the bag and the Quick Connect fitting.

The fittings were fine, but the service is terrible, I tried to reach out for help with no response, bought the wrong parts twice. My Bad went to local provider with much better service . WakeMakers have gone to the no employee model
Thank you for the feedback. We apologize about the poor service, we are extremely busy and are a little behind.
My new 2017 Axis T23 came with a 3/4" vent line in rears. I went with the Wakemaker 825# rear bags made for the Axis, it has a 1" screw in fitting on top to vent, so you will need this fitting to make that vent connection. The staff at Wakemakers was very helpful as always. This is a must have for any bag you put in an Axis rear.
If you plan to integrate a Sumo Sac or Straight Line Big Bag into your boat, this is the fitting to use. A quick-connect fitting (I think Straight Line calls theirs a "Link") is okay for a pump that you plug into your cigarette lighter and throw over the side of the boat. But if you are permanently plumbing a sac into your boat in an integrated system, the threaded fitting like this with a Flow-Rite quick connect clipped onto it is the way to go.
Only thing quicker than these connections was the shipping. As soon as I hit the go button FedEx was knocking on my door with the part.
