Honey tap gate valve for honey extractors, honey tanks, and bottling pails. Designed to regulate the flow of honey into smaller vessels and simplify transfer and bottling during beekeeping operations. Key benefits Precise flow control: Gate valve design lets you start, stop, and meter honey flow to reduce drips and waste while filling jars or smaller containers. Reliable sealing: Threaded barrel combines with a removable bracket and stainless steel screws to create a tight seal with the bucket when properly fitted and tightened. Durable construction: Stainless steel screws provide corrosion resistance and long service life in honey processing environments. Food compatible use: Suitable for use with food, particularly honey, making it appropriate for beekeeping supplies and bottling tasks. Easy installation and maintenance: Fits into a suitably sized hole in an extractor, honey tank, or bottling pail; bracket is screwed on after insertion for a secure fit and easy removal for cleaning. Features Materials: Stainless steel screws and durable valve components for reliable performance. Mounting: Threaded barrel that fits into a suitably sized hole and a removable bracket that is screwed on once the valve is positioned. Leak management: Tighten screws when installing to prevent leakage and ensure a good seal with the bucket. Compatibility: Intended for use with honey extractors, honey tanks, and bottling pails commonly used in beekeeping supplies. Typical use scenarios Extractor bottling: Install the valve on a honey extractor or tank to control honey flow directly into jars or a bottling line after extraction. Small batch packaging: Fit the valve to a bottling pail to fill individual jars or sample containers at markets, events, or in a home processing setup. Straining and transferring: Use the valve to drain honey through a strainer into a receiving vessel, allowing controlled flow during filtration and settling. What to know before use Ensure the hole in the bucket or tank matches the threaded barrel size for a proper fit. Tighten the stainless steel screws after fitting the bracket to avoid leaks. Remove the bracket for cleaning and reassemble securely before use. This honey tap gate valve is a practical, durable component for beekeeping equipment, providing controlled dispensing and a reliable seal when installed correctly.
