## Description

Custom installations are easier and safer with all parts included in this convenient 1/2-inch Slip kit Assembly.

Review: Easy to use! - 20 ft. kennel being used for a chicken run. We covered it with a heavy tarp for a roof. These drains installed are removing the rain water that would otherwise puddle on the tarp. Attached black plastic hose to spout and ran down the inside of kennel. Works very well. Tough plastic with good gasket and seal.
Review: Nice quality - I am building a 5 gallon DWC hydroponic system and I wanted a bucket level. I installed the bulkhead about an inch above the bottom of the bucket and attached a ten inch hose on the outside. I just like to keep an eye on the level of water without having to mess with the plant too much and this worked perfectly.

## Features

- Heavy wall bulkhead is molded of highest impact resistant PVC eliminating possibility of finding hidden cracks when filling aquarium
- Stock color is jet black to match acrylic tank backgrounds
- The exclusive Fit x Insert 90 degree elbow dramatically reduces wall clearance requirements

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great bulkhead for lighter duty use!
*by S***Y on January 6, 2017*

This is a slightly softer fitting and should probably be used on something along the lines of a 5 gallon pail or something. The Banjo fittings are much more rugged. The positives on this are that many threads will fit and adapt to this, and it has plenty of threads left over, allowing you to penetrate thicker materials. I originally bought this because it has the hose adapter and strainer. I didn't end up using them, but it was handy to have I guess! I bought this on Amazon Prime so my shipping was fast and free. Can't complain there!
