who sells this tank fitting? or whats it called?

[Luke]

looking for a tank outlet and came across this picture



it looks ideal but i cant find a supplier (i only want the fitting not the tank)

anyone know of a supplier or even the name of the fitting so i can search for one

cheers

Hi Luke
For what purpose do you need it?
What is the pressure that comes on the connection?
De Wit in Schijndel (The Netherlands) has some connections
Look for "aansluitnippel en/or tankdoorvoer"
They are lightweight, so sending to UK would not be expensive I guess?
Cheers

hi it's for an outlet to my water pump so no pressure looks like it will pick up off the bottom of the tank

Looks like a water butt fitting luke

Go to a plubmers merchant tell em what you need they sort it for about 2quid. Prob have change!

[Luke]

i can get a normal one but its one like that i want - the normal ones will not pick up the last 10-20mm of the water where as that one will

with that one the bit to the left goes inside the tank (he actually installs it wrong in the picture)

still searching - i think its a fiamma one as it seems to come with their tanks

[Luke]

there is one included with this

Surely bit of new airline hose for fish tank could be the scavenger pipe in tank if suitable fit made to the fitting

yeah i'm just fussy like this - i see something thats ideal then just dont want something thats slightly not as good - in my other camper you could run out of water look in the tank and there was about 10 litres left in

[robbie.cee]

And the tank will go bad with standing water too so good point. Or use low take off point

i found it for £14.99 but decided to make my own as i wanted the pipe on the outside to be up to the floor of the van out of harms way so i made one from some stainless pipe

its got a plate with studs welded on so it can be secured and sealed from the outside with just 4 m6 nuts

needs cutting down but i'll do that as i fit it
