Excellent thanks for the info. I guess being a decent rubber and pretty thick they should cope pretty well. Very interesting product I have to say!

Re: Dip Tube - Black water tank

Uniseals are the answer
https://ronco-plastics.com/product/uniseals/

Used them in my holding tank, easy to install, zero leakage - and I believe I could have removed them if needed, by simply pulling out the dip tube, then removing seal. Not sure seal would be useable after....

Re: Dip Tube - Black water tank

No need to buy Uniseals through Ronco Plastics...the Uniseal Warehouse in FL sells direct. UNISEAL They're very nice people who will answer all your questions if you call to order instead of buying online. Uniseals are so inexpensive that they can be air mailed in a padded envelope.


Be sure to read and FOLLOW all instructions.
