Tank Linking Kit - Nose-to-Tail
Product Description
"Why struggle to specify, fabricate, purchase, load and move a huge steel tank when our plastic tanks can be adapted and linked together quickly and easily using a Linking Kit?"
Jon Trelfa - General Manager Sales & Marketing Lead
Need to extend waste collection capacity? No problem...! We have built in the functionality, which allows you to link and unlink our plastic tanks to create exactly the waste volume you need, job by job, site by site.
Use this 60cms long link kit to connect 2 x 500 or 2 x 750 or 2 x 1000 gallon Tuff Tanks nose-to-tail. Repeat as necessary.

LINKING INSTRUCTIONS
Linking is simple - just connect the pipework!
- Lay tank flat and ensure it is empty. You will be making a hole through the skin of the tank!
- To convert each tank, remove the red caps to reveal the 52mm brass inserts (2 at each end).
- Visualise how you want the linking kit to work and select the appropriate inserts you wish to convert (either for side-by side or nose-to-tail linking). NOTE: The grey plastic exposed once red cap is removed is the wall of the tank and will need to be holed (drilled out) to allow the tank contents to flow through.
- Use a 51mm hole saw to drill through the centre of the port, inside the brass threaded insert.
- Screw the 50mm male threaded tank adaptor into the brass insert. For best results use PTFE tape to create a watertight seal.
- Connect the linking pipe. NOTE: When tanks are not linked, seal the holes using the 50mm dust caps, ensuring that the locking rings are folded over securely. Your tank will now work as a standalone tank.
