The ship-side International Shore Connection required under SOLAS Chapter II-2
Regulation 10.2.1.7 — the fitting every vessel over 500GT must carry so that
shore-based firefighting water can be connected to the ship's fire main.
Brass body with the slotted four-position flange specified for the vessel-carried
unit. The slots let the flange drop over partially tightened studs and lock with a
part turn, which is what makes the connection possible under emergency conditions
rather than workshop conditions.
**Face specification**
- Outer diameter 178mm
- Bore 64mm
- Bolt circle 132mm
- Four slots, 19mm, open to the flange edge
- Flange thickness 14.5mm minimum, flat face
- Rated 1 N/mm² service
**Interoperability**
The 65mm BSP female outlet accepts our full adapter range, so one ISC covers a
vessel regardless of what standard the shore side is running:
- BIC (British Instantaneous) — Commonwealth-flagged vessels and older tonnage
- Storz 65, 52-C and 38 — European, German, Dutch and Scandinavian equipment
- Nakajima 65 and 50A — Japanese-flagged vessels
- NOR 66 — Norwegian and Scandinavian vessels and offshore craft
Supplied with rubber flange gasket. Fastener kits available separately, or order
the ISC Hardware Kit for bolts, nuts, washers and gasket in one part number.
Held in Australian stock. Stock items dispatch in 1–2 business days, tracked, Australia-wide., including
replacements for Port State Control survey deficiencies.
*Bronze and brass develop a natural patina in salt service. Surface colour will
vary between units and darkens with age; this does not affect function or
compliance.*
