IBC tank adapter

[The Professor]

Hi,

Need some help please,

I have 1000L IBC tank,

I looking for an adapter to connect the pumps up from it,

I can find many plastic type adapters, but these are flimsy, which i already have, but find they leak,

Anyone know where i can get something stronger that does not leak,

Ive added a pic of what i use at present,

Cheers

You’ll be hard pressed to find something other than plastic, can’t you just seal all the joints? When I was setting up my tanks I used ‘smithsofthedean’ website as they seem to have the best selection of IBC connectors.

.......... and I suggest you use a liquid thread sealer. (PTFE liquid).

TBH I doubt you will every remove it (you will remove the hoses) so I would mix up some Alridite and smear that mix on the threads before you tighten them up. It will seal the threads and it won't come off again.
