Drill an appropriately sized opening in the reservoir and insert the rubber grommet; subsequently, place the pipe or connectors.
Ensure that the groove of the grommet is completely seated in the drilled opening.
If you encounter difficulties with the connection, consider applying soap or oil to the Barbed Elbow, Barbed Tee, Barbed Straight, Barbed Y Connector, or PVC pipe to facilitate easier passage through the drilled hole in the bucket or tank.
WATERPROOF Rubber Grommets: essential in connections of DIY hydroponic systems, Dutch buckets, drip systems, siphon aquaponic systems, and irrigation systems…
LEAK-PROOF SEAL: Donut-shaped Rubber Grommets assist in transferring water or nutrient solutions from one reservoir to another using tubing and barbed fittings or piping.
RESILIENT: regularly exchange aged grommets in current dripping or hydroponic systems to maintain air and water-tight seals.
A 1 Inch Donut Rubber Grommet is compatible with SCH40 3/4 inch PVC pipes or the pipe’s outer diameter aligns with the inner diameter of the grommet.
The rubber grommet has an inner diameter of 1 inch, but the drilled hole in the bucket must be 1.5 inches.
