This is the Stainless Steal Bulkhead that we use on our series of weldless fittings. 1/2" FPT x 1/2" MPT along with a flat, thick rubber washer that makes it super easy to install on most kettles.
You will need to drill a 1" hole in your kettle for installation of this weldless bulkhead. We recommend a Step Drill Bit for this
