11/5/2009 1:05 PM Just got a 55 gallon plastic water tank for washing at the track.
I was wanting to keep it set up vertical and tapping a fitting on the low side of it. Has anyone did this and could you give me some advice? |

11/5/2009 1:27 PM You have a Parker distributor in South Pont called Huntington Hose & Hydraulics Inc
Go down there and tell them what you want to do and they will fix you up with some tasty valved quick disconnect fittings so that you can just plug a hose on the tank when you need it. Depending on the wall thickness of the tank, you might be better off with a bulkhead type fitting with o-rings rather than tapping it into the plastic. |
