Mr. Sandman · 05-30-2012, 10:53 AM

I want to re-design my fishbox drain. I want to fiberglass a PVC tube (1.5") right at the bottom of the box and pass it thru a bulkhead then glue a hose nipple on to it and run it to a heavy duty masserator pump.
It has to be watertight and strong.

I suppose I could use a fiberglass tube but I don't have one and cant find one out here. I could order one from McMasterCarr I suppose. But I was wondering if I could get it to stick to PVC plumbing tubes.

Has anyone tried to use PVC with fiberglass?

I suppose I could also 5200 the hell out if it but I would rather just epoxy it with something like 6-10
