Ibc tank fitting question

axe · Postby **axe** » May 30th, 2020, 2:18 pm

I've used a 2 inch female adapter on ibc tank before but I got one recently and it seems the standard pvc 2 inch female adapter can't work

Any ideas, or options will be appreciated

Thanks

2" poly discharge ball valve with NPT thread or QD fitting is standard.

Some people does cut a hole and use a unseal.

Now mine came with the 2" nozzle that does screw onto the valve.

What I did was, cut the the spout piece flush, I bought some 2" silicone tubing, got it at Allied in south, and connect it to nozzle and a piece of PVC pipe and made up the rest of there.

I end up using a coupling that clamps on and add the reducer

Nice project you have there
