What size hole are you after? I gather a 1" bulkhead isn't what you want?

i want to do 2 x 1.5" bulkheads- so its like a 2-2.25" hole isnt it?

Sorry that I didn't read your first post where you said 1.5" bulkheads BTW.

The hole size for 1.5" bulkhead is I believe 2.5" (65mm), at least according to this page it's 2.5" (I'll check when I get home from work, I have some 1.5" bulkheads I can measure to be sure).

Anyhow I just came into a situation where I need to drill a hole for 1.5" bulkhead too, so I just ordered me a 2.5" glass bit. If you're still in need of getting the stuff drilled when this arrives, you can borrow it... I'll post back when I get it.

thanks tony- that would be greatly appreciated.

It arrived

I haven't used it yet though since what I thought I would need it for, I was able to get away with using a 1" bulkhead and a bushing to step down the 1.5" pipe at the bulkhead - so it's all nice and shiny still

Anyhow if you're still interested in getting those holes drilled drop me a line.
