Is this 5/8 size ? Was going to pressure it using water mains pressure today but found a size I did not have

3/8" at a guess. The sizes are in that link ^ there in the thread.

Update on this the tank is toast

After getting all the stops as I guessed (I hoped for a thread leaking) thr tank is gone

Filled up with mains water pressure and there was a leak

Ok so cut off the metal bracket and keep the parts and now go for connecting to my old tank possably remotely

The ends make good funnels for use with a 205l drum, weld either 2" or 3/4" BSP nipple on to it.

Make decent small foundry furnaces, too...
