Review: great kit for the price - Great quality and perfect fit into PVC. I won't be using the elbow piece for my setup but it seems to work ok. The tolerance between the elbow and the strainer is a bit loose for a horizontal setup (the 1/2" bulkhead kit that I also bought was perfectly fine), but as long as you have it vertical it would be fine. The strainer fits fine right into the bulkhead, which is how I will be using it. Half the price of many other pieces online; would buy again. Review: Great Product - Worked great for an additional drain to the pond for me. Easy to use. ## Features - Heavy wall bulkhead is molded of highest impact resistant PVC eliminating possibility of finding hidden cracks when filling aquarium - Stock color is jet black to match acrylic tank backgrounds - The exclusive Fit x Insert 90 degree elbow dramatically reduces wall clearance requirements ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 398 Reviews | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lifegard Aquatics - **Material:** Polyvinyl Chloride - **Tank Volume:** 10 Gallons - **Special Feature:** Weather Resistant - **Item Weight:** 0.25 Pounds - **Shape:** Round - **Specific Uses For Product:** Through wall plumbing - **Style:** Modern - **Color:** Black - **Included Components:** Bulkhead, Nut and Rubber Gasket ## Images ![Lifegard Aquatics 1-Inch Bulkhead Fitting Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710QIgQMOgL.jpg) ![Lifegard Aquatics 1-Inch Bulkhead Fitting Kit - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71s8WbCNvJL.jpg) ![Lifegard Aquatics 1-Inch Bulkhead Fitting Kit - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71c9vSTN+vL.jpg) ![Lifegard Aquatics 1-Inch Bulkhead Fitting Kit - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PXRLAoJaL.jpg) ![Lifegard Aquatics 1-Inch Bulkhead Fitting Kit - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51p9bK2UIfL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: do i have to use pvc glue for the elbow connection?** A: It would be best with high flow rate **Q: So the elbow slips inside the end of the bulkhead?

Easy to use. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked great! *by J***F on August 22, 2023* I used this to add a drain to my 100Gallon rubbermaid pond. Put it right near the top just below the outside lib and I can easily adjust the outflow height with the 90 degree elbow to adjust when it will drain.
