Anyone happen to have two, 1" thread by slip schedule 80 bulkheads for 1-7/8" to 2" holes?

Or where I can buy these in Canada, or BC online? I checked our vendor forums' and only found them online at bulk reef supply. It's in the states and not the style I was hoping to get.

Thanks

Have you tried AJ's in Vernon? Not sure what he has though. Or this guy has some product and is good to deal with. http://www.shopbwirrigation.com/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=74
Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link here but I will and if the moderaters want to remove it they will.

Good idea...have you tried Lake Country Hot Tubs? (I think that's their name...almost beside where you work) They are going out of business so if they have them maybe you will get a good buy.

Is there a specific reason why you are looking for sched 80 rather than sched 40? The cost will be considerably higher. Try Corix, if there's one in your area.

Thanks for the reply guys!

Good link Ron! I checked with Valley Spa and Pool in Kelowna, and they only have fittings starting at 1.5". I'll have to check lake country hot tubs today if I can!

saltcreep: woo, there is a corix location here in Kelowna. Will have to check on Monday. The reason I need schedule 80 is for the hole size, 1-7/8" or 2". The holes are 2"

Thanks again guys

Does Corix have a locating in the interior?

Another option is to use a larger bulkhead (1.5"?) and reduce it down to 1". A cheaper option with more fiddling around work, but still an option.

Will have to give them a call Monday. Oh yeah, I did check AJ's friday night after work. Went all the way out there to find out they didn't have the right ones :(

But it was a nice night for a drive! :biggrin: Did he still have that nice Flame Hawk for sale?

saltcreep is the man!! I went into Corix today and they had double threaded schedule 80 bulkheads instock on the shelf! :D $23/each, not too bad!

For the record they had grey pvc schedule 80 like on marine depot, and an 'econo' line of bulkheads that are half the price. hex flange, hex nut, black plastic.

another place to try is EMCO. I work at the one in Calgary and we either have s40 and s80 fittings and pipe in stock or can get them in pretty quick.
