Disclosed herein is a bulkhead fitting. The bulkhead fitting includes biasing means and a plurality of guide rings. In a preferred embodiment, a first guide ring is provided with an annular sidewall and a base extending radially outward from the sidewall, and a second guide ring is configured to mate with the first guide ring. Biasing means is positioned between the guide rings and radially outward of the sidewall to allow expansion and contraction of the first and second guide rings relative to one another, while preventing or inhibiting the biasing means from catching in the threads of the shaft or otherwise contacting the shaft.

The bulkhead fitting of claim 6, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially T-shaped half cross-section. 8. A bulkhead fitting, comprising: a body having a threaded shaft, a gasket configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough, and a nut configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough;a plurality of guide rings positionable between said nut and said gasket and configured to have said threaded shaft extending therethrough, said plurality of guide rings comprising (a) a first guide ring including a sidewall proximal said threaded shaft and further including a base extending radially outward from said sidewall, and (b) a second guide ring configured to mate with said first guide ring; andbiasing means for allowing said first and second guide rings to expand and contract relative to one another, wherein said biasing means comprises a wave spring. 9. The bulkhead fitting of claim 8, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially L-shaped half cross-section. 10. The bulkhead fitting of claim 9, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially rectangular half cross-section. 11. The bulkhead fitting of claim 8, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially U-shaped half cross-section. 12. The bulkhead fitting of claim 11, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially T-shaped half cross-section. 13. A bulkhead fitting, comprising: a body having a threaded shaft, a gasket configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough, and a nut configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough;a plurality of guide rings positionable between said nut and said gasket and configured to have said threaded shaft extending therethrough, said plurality of guide rings comprising (a) a first guide ring including a sidewall proximal said threaded shaft and further including a base extending radially outward from said sidewall, and (b) a second guide ring configured to mate with said first guide ring; andbiasing means for allowing said first and second guide rings to expand and contract relative to one another, wherein said biasing means comprises a bellville washer. 14. The bulkhead fitting of claim 13, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially L-shaped half cross-section. 15. The bulkhead fitting of claim 14, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially rectangular half cross-section. 16. The bulkhead fitting of claim 13, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially U-shaped half cross-section. 17. The bulkhead fitting of claim 16, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially T-shaped half cross-section. 18. A bulkhead fitting, comprising: a body having a threaded shaft, a gasket configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough, and a nut configured to have said threaded shaft extend therethrough;a plurality of guide rings positionable between said nut and said gasket and configured to have said threaded shaft extending therethrough, said plurality of guide rings comprising (a) a first guide ring including a sidewall proximal said threaded shaft and further including a base extending radially outward from said sidewall, and (b) a second guide ring configured to mate with said first guide ring; andbiasing means for allowing said first and second guide rings to expand and contract relative to one another, wherein said biasing means comprises a spring. 19. The bulkhead fitting of claim 18, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially L-shaped half cross-section. 20. The bulkhead fitting of claim 19, wherein said second guide ring has a substantially rectangular half cross-section. 21. The bulkhead fitting of claim 18, wherein said first guide ring has a substantially U-shaped half cross-section. 22.
