Hello reefers,
I have a custom sump that I am trying to plumb 1 1/4" from the Cor 20 to the bulk head that is 1" and has a 4- way 1" cross on the bulkhead on the top of the sump. I need to find a fitting that will adapt the threaded end of the bulkhead to a 1 1/4" pipe slip x slip. Then to convert the other end of the cross that is on top to 1 1/4" pvc pipe. I have attached a few photo's that may help.
Thanks
Doug

I don’t believe such a fitting exists. Bulkheads aren’t designed to be attached to that way. You can glue PVC straight into them though.
 
You'd have to use a 1 1/2" bulkhead and reducer bushing.
 
Whenever this kind of thing happens to me, I want for a machine shop in my garage so I could turn the needed part.
