Uniseal Frequently Asked Questions

Questions and Answers about Uniseals.
If you have a question about Uniseals and their use contact me HERE I will add it into the Uniseal FAQ's. I am also interested to hear of how our customers have used Uniseals and could add some photos to the site.



Question

A bulkhead looks much more substantial than a Uniseal. Can it do the same job?

Answer
Uniseals and bulkheads both have their strong points. A bulkhead will provide some structural strength to a length of pipe entering a rectangular vessel. This however can lead to excessive strain on a bulkhead, particularly inexpensive ones created from second hand PVC. The bulkhead must be positioned directly in line with a pipe run and perpendicular to the vessel. I have seen installations where people have heated their round barrels around their pre-cut hole and quickly fitted the bulkhead to get rid of complex curves and attain the shape. A bit of faffing around there I think.
