2" slip screens for bulkheads

dwdenny · 02/03/2006, 11:24 AM

Anyone know where to get a 2" bulkhead screen that is a 2" slip not threaded?

Thanks
Doug

1.5" is the biggest I have ever seen.

yeah that is what I am finding. I ws given a 2" bulkhead but it is slip. Wonder if pool and spa places will have something that would work. thanks Entropy for the input

You could always reduce the bulkhead down to 1.5 inch. Not sure if that would defeat the purpose of having the 2 inch bulkhead though.

You could convert it to 1.5 with a slip/slip or a slip/threaded.

Think I will look into PVC fittings and see if that will work if not the I will go by the Pool and Spa places and if that doesn't work then I will reduce it to 1.5" and call it good.

Thanks again
Doug
