Make your own positionable plumbing assembly for sparging or whatever you can dream up. We've gotten so many requests to make custom assemblies above and beyond the mash recirculation and sparge ring kits that we decided to offer up the base components ala carte.
Options:
- Single straight 1/2" ID link. The picture shows a continuous run of 6 links but we are selling them individually. All you need to do is specify the quantity and we'll ship that quantity all linked together. Once assembled, each link gives you about 1" of length. Basically it's a single piece with the male ball on one end and a female socket on the other. They can be snapped together to make a positionable long pipe and they are compatible with any other 1/2" sized ball or socket accessory.
We also stock the assembly tool as an additional accessory if you want to make assembly (and especially reconfiguration) much easier. Yes, you CAN snap these together using brute force by hand... if you are a real man.
