SPOUTS AND FITTINGS

Designed specifically for maple tapping, H2O tapping bits feature an optimized cutting profile that ensures fast, smooth chip evacuation for a clean, consistent tap hole. They allow for precise and uniform tapping, promoting a tight, leak-free spout installation.

Laser-engraved depth marks make it easy to visually control drilling depth and help maintain the recommended tapping depths of 1 1/2" to 2", depending on tree diameter.

Features

• Laser-engraved depth marks at 1 1/2" and 2"

• Clean cutting profile promoting improved spout sealing

• Fast chip evacuation for smooth drilling

• Protective storage case included

Available sizes

1/4" • 19/64" • 5/16"

The 5/16" red plug tee with a right-side blocked outlet is designed for installation at the end of maple tubing lateral lines. Its configuration allows producers to create a loop around the tree while preventing sap flow through the closed section, reducing stagnant sap and minimizing potential leak points. The red color provides quick visual identification of the end of the lateral line during installation and maintenance. The integrated plug also allows the system to be fully sealed during cleaning and sanitation procedures at the end of the season.

Renowned for its unparalleled sealing, this saddle ranks among the best, especially when it is used under high vacuum. With its unique rubber seal that follows the shape of the hole on the mainline year after year, it will help you manage leaks over many years.

Proven Check Valve technology effectively eliminates the back flow of sap from the tubing system. Sap that
leaves the hole during short sap runs cannot be pulled back by the tree as it freezes. Contaminated sap from the tubing system is prevented from being pulled back into trees, extending the sugaring season and substantially increasing sap production.

With a reduced diameter of ¼", it will minimize the compartmentalization zone (dead wood area) affected by tap holes. The diameter and depth of the tap hole have a direct influence on how large this area becomes. If sustainability of your bush is a priority, ¼" spouts drastically reduce the compartmentalization effect.

Designed to connect 3/16" lateral tubing to 3/4" mainlines, the H2O Saddle Elbow delivers exceptional sealing performance, especially under high vacuum conditions. Its exclusive rubber gasket conforms to the shape of the drilled hole season after season, helping reduce leaks and maintain peak system performance.
