Which tang?

I am only now having a larger manifold. My previous tank used one that only had two outlets. Most manifolds you see use 1" pipe & fittings. This is a closer picture of how mine is made. I don’t consider myself and expert in manifolds though.

I OH SOOOOOO BADLY wanted to buy those clear valves for my setup, but man are they pricey!
 
That's some mighty fine labeling you got there.

Mighty fine indeed.

Well, you look like one to me!
 
Husband just got a call from his office. They are shutting the building down, effective tomorrow, until further notice. All advisors & staff have to work from home. I’m officially freaked out
Same here. All employees worldwide asked to work from home for foreseeable future.
 
The problem I had was getting them, because they are often not in stock and disappear quickly when they get new ones in.
trick is buy whole case ,sell what you don't need to us for a few dollars more:mad:LOL
 
They weren't that bad. About $27 or so each. They are made in China and I may regret getting them down the road.

1" Clear PVC Tru-Union Valve

Well when you need to order 20 of them, it adds up quick :p I ordered from the same place but got the regular ones. Yes they are made in China but after recieving them I'm pretty happy with there quality, I've handled spears valves before and these aren't far off.

I don't think they ever had more than a handful of them whenever I ordered them. I needed 1", 3/4" & 1/2" and it took 3-4 separate orders to get what I got.
