I have a similar issue. The male part is slightly too large for a 2 inch PVC. This is confirmed by turning the adapter around and seeing that the "smooth" part won't go over it either. Some must be slightly larger, perhaps metric.

@@jeffjohnson2792 Same problem. A real head scratch. Solved by using a 2 inch rubber splice pipe hose with clamps. Slipped hose of IBC ball valve nipple and clamped tight with 2 band clamps. The took a 2 inch pvc collar with a short piece of 2 inch pvc pipe that slipped into the the open end of the rubber hose and double clamped it. Then took the 2 inch pvc with the 3/4 pipe thread w/ garden hose connector and glued together. Worked fine, no problems.

@@mortonsfarm652 The IBC I bought here in Australia would be US made and has a male Kamlok on the valve with a thread on the end. The thread is 2" NPT which has 11-1/2 TPI The fittings we can get here without buying expensive industrial supply stuff is mostly 2" BSP which has 11 TPI, which varies by only 0.004" pitch. They will screw together over the 5 or 6 pitches on the fitting. I bought a 2" BSP cap, drilled it out to fit a 3/4" bush with a rubber gasket and back-nut on the inside of the cap. I used Teflon tape but still had some leak so added a bit of extra tape and a little silicon and let it set overnight then put my hose fitting on. Instead of this, I have found before on pool fittings that automotive thread sealing paste from Loctite or Permatex is better. Apply liberally, screw it together and wait till the next day for it to "set". It can be unscrewed relatively easily if required.

Goodonya mate... wondering if you have any idea for sealing the hole when the valve has to be removed (due to perishing) and permanently plugging the ibc?
@mortonsfarm6524 жыл бұрын
If you just want to seal it a rubber boots with 2 hose clamps works great. One side goes on valveless stem, the other side you plug with a cap. Usually can find all this in plumbing section. You may have to rough up the stem to get a good deal or use a bit of silicone inside as you slip it over. This is how our neighbors have a broken one setup for the cows. Thanks for the comment btw. Cheers P.s. I doubt it is as simple as unthreading the valve with broken flap and just get a standard tote cap?
