Anyone know Where's the best place to source this kind of pipe from?
What are people's views on burying a pipe in the floor of an outside slurry pit to enable us to suck out with tankers. The pit is dug into the ground and like a big bowl, at the moment when we do it we have to keep dropping further into the pit with the tankers to be able to reach the slurry. Not ideal and very messy. Looking into digging a pipe into the floor so we can stay on pit edge but suck from the middle. Currently use 6 inch infill but looking into an 8 inch load arm for the future. Question is will it work and what is the best pipe to use?
I'd think it would work fine, I'd use galvanized metal 8" pipe. Once in the the lagoon have it sticking up 6 or 8 inch to help avoid any foreign objects sooking in!
12inch pipe! Holy smokes. Biggest I can find on that site is 5 inch underground rated at 10bar. I'll give them a phone though. Cheers
I wouldnt of thought 10 bar enough for a good pump out fit
you want nothing less than a 6" pipe rated at 16 bar
Is that to use with umbilical system and then run off some outlets in the field?
Looks goodView attachment 421622View attachment 421624

Are they a solvent joint?
Yes do , we had one come out the ground when blowing the pipe out with a ball , was only put in with soil & it took every thing off the end of it but it was only a 4" pipe.Yeah just glued in. The glue only really seals it thou. I've been told to put plenty concrete in as the pressure on those 90's can pop it all out the ground[emoji85]
