What’s a suggested way to fix this 25 gallon tank please?

it needs to drain.

Thanks

You should just lump this under the "Want a sprayer that is not a POS" thread. LOL
Good luck with your project!

How big is the opening. You can easily find a stainless fitting in different trade sizes with NPT tapered threads that would easily thread into that opening. PM me with sizes and I may have something laying around that should work.

I concur with Brian662. I have a 15 gallon FIMCO that’s 12 years old that converted to an NPT thread bold drain cap after the OEM cap broke. I don’t recall the size, but it has been working for several years. Screw in the bolt about 75% of the way using a socket wrench. From then on, tighten it by hand only. While this is a back up sprayer, it gets used annually and so far it has never leaked.

So does anyone have a 25 gal fimco that has these plugs on bottom that may be used to bolt down or something?They actually come from inside tank with threaded part sticking through to bottom.I have a tank that 2 have popped out so far.I may try to find something to glue in but looks like a piss poor design

Are you talking about the black mounting brackets (feet) that are threaded onto the tank? I've had a few of those bolts come loose on me. I wonder if you can get replacement parts from pwmall? Www.pwmall.com

 

[Brian662]

I've used pwmall before to get replacement check valves for my pumps as well as other parts for the manifolds. They are a pretty nice resource for the fimco stuff especially.

No I really don't know what they are for.They look like threaded bolt holes from bottom but they are just glued in and I guess after awhile they pop loose and are inside tank.
