Clacks to fit a 1/2 in pipe
 
Hi
I am looking for somewhere that sells clacks that have a 1/2in pipe fitting for my 6in Burrell
One for the Hornplate and one for the barrel.
All the one I have seen on line do not go up to 1/2 in

Any ideas on suppliers.?

I would make my own except a taper reamer with a 9 degree taper is very expensive.
Thanks

Andy,

You could make a D bit taper "reamer" from silver steel, harden and temper. I did this for the taper plug cock on my water pump and it worked fine. Turned the plug and the reamer at the same machine setting and lapped in with eucryl toothpaste. Cheaper than buying a reamer for a couple of holes especially if gunmetal.

Paul.
