Anyone found a source for nuts for the bulkhead fitting. I took the fitting down to local plumbing shop that always has hard to find stuff and no luck with anything. Looks to be 11/16 x 24. All the stuff on line offered in that size is rediculous. Thanks

Thanks steve I ordered a couple of nuts will let you know how they work out. That other fitting looks like a very good substitute.

I ended up ordering a piece of hex brass and drilled and tapped my own. If it doesn't work out let me know I have a couple of extra.
