I found the hardest thing with this build was finding a male threaded pipe to go through my FT and have a female large and flat on the other side, with gaskets on both. I just found this and thought Id share!

Gunny, the one you linked is 3/4" and the one rob linked is 3"... of course the 3/4" is cheaper.... I price compared the 3" fittings on grainger and i lost my lunch.

I usually get my bulkheads from amazon (usually 1" and slip on the inside) and my uniseals from US plastics. US plastics seems like they have competitive prices.

I dont know what you are draining but 3" sounds big.

Your right I didn't compare apples to apples but the one I bought at Granger was just right for my system and only about $12
