## Description

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

Review: As others have posted - not a 1 inch bulkhead received. Does not take 1 inch pipe. My fitting was 1 1/4 inch
Review: Great quality and perfect fit into PVC. I won't be using the elbow piece for my setup but it seems to work ok. The tolerance between the elbow and the strainer is a bit loose for a horizontal setup (the 1/2" bulkhead kit that I also bought was perfectly fine), but as long as you have it vertical it would be fine. The strainer fits fine right into the bulkhead, which is how I will be using it. Half the price of many other pieces online; would buy again.

## 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

## Questions & Answers

**Q: do i have to use pvc glue for the elbow connection?**
A: It would be best with high flow rate

**Q: So the elbow slips inside the end of the bulkhead? Is it then easily removed if needed?**
A: Yes it slips into the bulkhead and can be removed fairly easy

**Q: Is this bulkhead slip x slip for hardpiping underneath and can the strainer slip onto pipe the strainer will go on top of durso and hardpipe under.**
A: This bulkhead is slip interior on both ends. The strainer slips inside the bulkhead. That means the strainer OD is 1".

**Q: i have 2" holes in my tank is the flanges large enough to cover my holes or do i need a 1" bulkhead with a 2.5"flange? what im asking is how wide?**
A: Cuantos galones y que es lo q en realidad necesitas de cuanto son las bombas q tiene de retorno

*by I***S on 11 January 2015*

Bought the wrong size bulkhead! Oh well. Ended up using the strainer for a sump tank connection for a 240gal Aquarium. Saved many of my fishies and even a couple shrimp from certain filter death. Good quality plastic bulkhead though.
