size of mainline for 50 taps.

[hitnspit]

I will have maybe 50 to 60 taps on each mainline. Would 1/2 inch be the size to use. I will be running it to a storage bin on the woodline and then from that to the barn. Maybe 600 feet away. Any help would be wonderful.....jim

i would use 3/4 just because u can get saddles for it.

It sounds like your not using vacuum. If this is the case 50-60 taps would be fine on 1/2 mainline. If your using vacuum I would use 1 inch pipe for all mainlines.

if your not using vacuum just use 1/2" you can get saddles for it at bascoms. if you are using vac go with 3/4" for better vac transfer. i would also go wireless instead of using wire

I was looking at bascom yesterday and my plan was to go wireless do to funds. One reason i was looking at the 1/2 mainline. may have 3 or 4 mainlines but looks like i may have 50 taps on each line.... never know unless you try i guess..... thanks.
