Looking for a specific bulkhead fitting

[Paul Hewlett]

Hey guys,

does anyone knows where to find a bulkhead fitting with following measurements?

Top hole is 1 and 1/4 inch and bottom is 1inch wide barbed.

This looks a lot like a Lifegard aquatics brand bulkhead fitting!

Though, it may be metric… the top hole would be around 1.325” if it was for 1” PVC pipe!

I wasn't able to find the correct size on Lifegard Aquatics (I wasn't sure what would the upper hole size be when their description says 1inch)
I ended up buying one similar of Amazon

And it worked well no leak. Except the return is leaking now which I believe is 3/4 inch. Hopefully it's not cracked and I can just take it apart, clean and return.

Usually, you can just buy replacement bulkhead gaskets! (The actual rubber sealing ring)

To clarify, rigid plastic pipe used for potable water is measure by Inside Diameter (ID), so a 1” PVC pipe is typically 1.315inch on the OD! Then, the fitting that pipe slips into is tapered from >1.315-<1.315…
