A great solution for non-selfless fittings! |

Successfully installed this on two Megapot kettles using Greenlee 13/16Â and 3/4 hole punches and the recommended Brew Hardware pull-through tool. Viewing Bobbys videos on using the pull-through tool and SS soldering technique is EXTREMLY important. One caveat: my Megapots are thick walled and excessively work hardened during the manufacturing process. This resulted in severe splitting of the metal around the hole during the pull-through process with both 13/16 and 3/4 holes. This was easily remedied by cleaning an refluxing the well and shoulder around the fitting on the inside, wrapping additional concentric circles of solder around the fitting, reheating the surface area around the fitting on the outside then applying the torch closely around the solder loops from the inside until they melt and fill the well around the fitting and any areas of the shoulder where the cracks existed. Cleaned up nice and resulted in a neat, strong and leak free application!
