Yes, all ½" NPT. For a variety of reasons I used spare parts instead of a real bulkhead fitting. Here's the exploded view:

I believe the circle flow kit I bought didn't come with the elbow, the NPT adapter, or the NPT coupling (blue), so I ordered those separately.

Thanks. This is what I was expecting, but the photo helps me visualize it. Is the elbow necessary? Or can you get enough angular adjustment with the Loc-Line flow kit? I'm building my mash cap next week.

How did you connect the silicon tube together? Just a double hose barb and clamps?

These are professional stainless lids for fermentation tanks of variable capacity.

there is a bug in the english localisation, so switch to German if you want to see the drop down menu of available sizes. If you are outside the EU zone, then there is probably a manufacturer in your region providing a similar product.

hope this inspires.
