    A couple years ago Leader said they would not make clear polycarbonate adapters because you would have a very hard time getting them off the stubbys. In this business you sure have to do your own testing on a small scale before buying too many and finding a problem in the heat of the battle.

    Switched to one piece poly-carbonate 4 years a go and it was a good decision. Never have any push-offs now due to hard freezes. With two piece it's almost certain you'll have some problems.

    Would it be okay to ask what you are using? We also switched from stubbies with CV1 to a one piece disposable from H2O but we still get push offs but instead of the CV pushing off the stubby we are seeing the drop lines pushing off the spout. We had 65 of 3100 off after the big 3 week freeze.
