I agree completely they are overkill, but for $22 versus $13, well worth the peace of mind after seeing the results of a failed bulkhead. Chances are it was from over tightening, but none the less, any bulkhead can fail.

After dealing with cracked bulkheads, both in sch40 & sch80, I will now only use Hayward Sch80s. I'd recommend the same for anyone, and I believey you can get them from Bulk Reef Supply. (they also list hole sizes for each type)
