Anyone know where I can find a 1/2" fuel petcock?
« on: May 11, 2009, 03:06:52 PM »
....or 1/2" (female thread) barbed spigot. I have a custom alloy tank and the threaded hole size for the petcock is 1/2"
the only 1/2" petcocks I have come accross are on ebay and don't come included with the spigot attatchment.



So I could buy the ebay ones If I could find a spigot, or if anyone knows where to get the job lot? I'd aperciate it.

Try Pingle fuel valves.  I have seen 3/8 thread of the Air-Tech site,  They may have 1/2's.

Definitely British, but I would squeeze an NPT thread in there with some PTFE tape if nessascarry.
Seems I don't have a great deal of choice.. It just makes me curious as to what sort of spigots all these
people who are buying these 1/2" on ebay are using...
