I picked a used mueller 150 gal milk tank
The drain fitting is a flat flange that takes a o-ring
I need to find a clamp (and valve)that fits onto this flange
Does anyone have any suggestions???

Hard Maple,
(sorry for hijacking the thread) I knew I had seen the arch on the wall somewhere. Your pictures of your arch and the "new" doors is what gave me the idea when I came across the old arch at my uncles while deer hunting. Your arch is very swoopy and curvy. I would like to find doors and the makers name for mine, but at this time, I don't have a clue.

Regards,
Chris

Hard Maple,

I work for a dairy processing plant here in VT and that looks like a 1.5" flange gasket to me. I think we use De-Leval gaskets at work but there is a place that i believe will have everything you need. They even deal with Mueller tanks. Here is there website,

www.brunsbros.com

These guys do a great job from what ive seen, they have done a lot of custom fabrication for us and the quality is very good. Good Luck.

The www.partsdepotonline.com should also have the fittings. They are dairy equipment supply company.

Thanks for the leads, guys

Chris, that is a unique arch you have, nothing like I've ever seen.
Mounting it in the wall is just an idea I got from another sugarmaker.

Is it 1 1/2" triclover? It looks like it.
