What kind of fitting are you guys using on the Brute trash cans. Im ready to get started on my ATO going and was wondering if they were uni-seals or bulkhead fittings? Im kind of iffy on the uni-seals. Also what size diameter are you using on the PVC?

Getting a bulkhead to seal on a Brute can could be difficult.....I have in the past used a bulkhead on a cheaper Brute can with no issues, but being the can is rounded makes is harder to seal, and drawing the nut down on the can IMO would/could actually put the can under more pressure.....A uni-seal would be a sure bet and would work.

I was hoping you wouldnt say that. I guess uni-seals are it then. I just have to find them now. Thanks for the reply

You could try a bulkhead, but uni-seals try aquaticeco, premium aquatics or marine depot, but aquaticeco for sure.
