Access ports in s/s water tanks - best way?
This is a very typical aviation application. Call http://www.skybolt.com/
and they can get you the part you need. Basically it is a machine thread nutplate that you would rivit/pop rivit from the outside. You can use countersunk pop rivits so that you have a flush finish for the gasket to seal to. Good luck Bruce "Rod McInnis" wrote in message ... If you expect to use this access hole more than once, why not install a deck plate? You cut a 4" hole, install the deck plate collar using flat head screws with nuts on the inside (you have a 4" hole to reach through to put the nuts on). The deck plate then screws into the collar and seals with an O ring. Only hard part is getting a 4" hole in stainless...... Rod |
