How to install a bulkhead fitting on a water tank

[@butchtheiw]

Always de-burr the surfaces that gaskets will sit. I can't believe these guys didn't do or mention this!

[@PrinceJes]

Not necessary

[@pamlame4925]

Thank you SO MUCH for this video, I had no idea at all where to even begin and I searched a while to gather enough information just to be able to know how to ask what I needed! lol...My normal water storage tank started leaking badly from a split in the bottom and of course it couldn't have happened at a worse time. Can't afford to replace it and decided to use my little 225 gal emergency tank for now. I know TMI. But seriously, thank you so much.

Wow glad i watched this video. i had to remove a bulkhead fitting to replace a bad pump in one of my tanks and sure as you said the threads were left-handed. thanks for that bit of info.

[@Spraywell]

Thanks Juan!

[@jeremyfox6742]

Great video. Thanks

[@寅-m2t]

Very good clue. I just want to use a thread guiding the part to the hole. Not many videos showing this idea.

[@C-DOT]

what size drill bit should i use for a 1" bulk headed fitting ?

[@Kgoutdoor]

How big is the bulkhead. If I’m running a soft batch mix should I maybe do a 2 inch and reduce it? I was going to drill for a 1/2” bulk head.

[@joek0617]

Ok, so what if it's a 1000 gallon tank, and i cannot access the interior?

[@nick32141]

What size bulkhead on a 65 gal tank running a 5 gpm ?

[@Spraywell]

5 GPM pump, I would recommend a 1 1/2 inch bulk head, you'll never go wrong feeding a pump too much water, the only issue is the pump NOT getting enough.

[@UnderPressurePowerWashingLLc]

Dave, exactly how it's done !

[@JoseDiaz-gu8gx]

Hello What’s the price on a 100 gallon water tank?

[@indiekiduk]

I'd be interested in learning why it is a reverse thread if anyone knows

[@georgiosvarelas2747]

hello there. It is a reverse thread, becasue it gets tighter as you thread it and it is not un-srewed from the inside side. (it is not getting loose). That way you do not need to keep the inner part tight in ordert to fully tighten the nut.

[@lorenzomyhero]

Is this food grade bulkhead fitting?

[@Arsyadpotall]

thanks

[@yaselcavada7899]

Where is the video that show how to connect the tank to the pressure washer

[@ericv.8703]

where did you get your water tank?

[@Spraywell]

+Eric Victoria We have these in our brick and mortar store in West Palm Beach, Florida. We don't sell them online because shipping get's a little crazy due to their dimensions. If you can't find one locally we can quote you on a tank just email us at [e-mail]

[@yt_bharat]

Hey, no water sealant ? Must ensure proper sealing

[@ryanwaterman3473]

Bulkead has a rubber gasket that seals it.

[@JhunAva]

My metal tank bulkhead fitting need replacement due to accumulated sediment

[@Shakewelltouse]

That's a little tank. What about a large tank you can't use a broomhandle to reach where the fittings need to go?

[@Spraywell]

get a longer broom handle, or a fishing string or wire, anything that'll lead it to where you want it to go.

[@moto-rambler]

Thx for sharing.

[@corteydmusic]

great

[@lizerkhan]

really helpful....

[@ebobbyclaire]

THANK U BROTHER

[@Pit315689]

So the most important part, i.e ‘snaking’ the fitting inside the tank, you didn’t actually show ! The camera panned away !

[@aai3661]

They work if you can have access to the inside. If you don't you're screwed.

[@577buttfan]

You can just use a long wooden handle or string with weight to fish it through no big deal man,

[@NateBuczacz]

Appreciate the video, but I found it personally offensive that you didn't clean the burrs off of your hole. Where's the video showing your bulkhead leaking with those 200 gallons of water pressure? I'm only half joking.
