1.5" Tri Clover to Ball Lock GAS Post

[RobW]

Does anybody know a local or ebay source for these?
The only ones I can find are in the US and either don't ship here or are very exxy.

Cheers

Rob

What if you you made one?

Just need to drill the hole. Not sure how it compares with the cost of the one you were looking at in the states.

That's the fallback position but I'd prefer an all-in-one if possible - for sanitary reasons mostly.
And of course there are pre-drilled TC plates but they're all the wrong size hole.

Find out what thread a commonly available post has, search for a triclover end cap with that thread.... they are around
That would be pretty much what the all in one's are.

I couldn't find one so brought a gas post with BSP male thread and then a triclamp blank with a female thread and it's done.

I looked at that too but the post is NBP and the TC caps all seemed to be MPT but I guess some thread tape could fix that.
I'll keep looking.

I do like the all-in-ones though

The pic you show in your first post looks exactly like the bulkhead post into a threaded fitting.
If you look hard enough, you should be able to find a tri clover fitting with an actual threaded hole, instead of an extension welded on

Cheers N87 you're right, I didn't spot that.
Too easy.
