1" Bulkheads, Sch. 80

A well made bulkhead used this on my new sump build. (Posted on 11/20/2019)

This is a very heavy duty quality product. I was amazed how well built it is. However I wish I could have used it.

I highly recommend using schedule 80 fittings over schedule 40 fittings. Both products are extremely high quality products at Aquacave. What I love about these schedule 80 bulkheads is I can use a rench on holding them in place.

Please check your hole size!

When I ordered the schedule 80 fittings, "not knowing" my tank hole was only 1-3/4". I figured with a little wiggle room my old schedule 40 bulkheads could be replaced with schedule 80 bulkhead.. Boy was I WRONG! There is only 1/8" difference between schedule 40 and the schedule 80 bulkheads. My 160 gal. tank with 3/4" inch glass tank has two 24" x 8" overflows making it impossible to re-drill a per-existing hole. Sadly I had to order 4 new schedule 40 bulkheads. I "chickened-out" on re-drilling 1/8" difference on my 3/4" thick tank. Unfortunately, I missed out on on a chance in using these high quality schedule 80 bulkheads on this project. I will use schedule the 80 bulkheaqds on all new upcoming projects.
