I bought a 65 gallon norwesco leg tank as my SH tank. The only issue is, it came with a bulkhead fitting at the bottom which I didn’t realize would be a possible issue until now.
There isn’t much in the search about this, besides having to weldthe tank. If that is the case, I would just return it. Is there anything else I can do to prevent the bulkhead fitting from going bad all of the time? Or is there a certain way to plug the hole?
I have a bleach tank with a bulkhead and it leaked. I changed the bulkhead to a Banjo and use silicone grease. It hasn’t leaked since I applied this fix 3 - 4 years ago.
My entire trailer is painted with iron armor truck bed paint, so it is completely black. It was easy to see the previous fitting was leaking because it had eaten through the paint on the wood (right under bulkhead) and then some of the wood.
I repainted it and the paint is still there. No leaks yet.
