Help! 1 1/4" bulkhead, Where are they?

gmatt · 03/15/2006, 02:56 PM

I'm trying to find a 1 1/4in. Slip to Slip bulkhead.

Does anyone know where I can purchase one?

I've found thread to thread and slip to thread but nothing else.
I want to make an external Durso Standpipe drilling through the back of my tank. I'm making a Calfo type overflow and I need 1 1/4in. bulkhead. They seem to be an urban myth.

I want slip to slip to give me the smallest size of Durso standpipe to fit inside of the Calfo overflow.

Thanks in advance for any help.

As far as I know there isn't a slip to slip 1.25" bulkhead. But you can always check out www.Savko.com

Orchard Supply Hardware, Home Depot and Sam's all carry bulkheads, though availability varies from store to store. You can definately get them from US Plastics http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/pro...duct%5Fid=5830
