How to Install a Bottom Screw in Tap

How to Install a Bottom Screw-in Tap

Here are some helpful tips and tricks on how to install a bottom screw-in tap!

If you're having trouble following the steps below.

 

Tools we use:

  1. Drum Spanner
  2. Knife
  3. Flathead Screwdriver
  4. Bottom screw-in tap

 

To start the process, turn the drum so that the bottom bung is facing up. This is very important to avoid spilling any liquid during the installation. Once the bottom bung is facing up, use the end of your drum spanner to twist it open. Once it’s open, you’ll see a piece of plastic behind it — this is there to prevent leakage during transportation. (refer to pic 1)

 

Once the bottom bung has been removed, use your knife to cut a square in the drum. The center is the hardest part to cut, so we recommend cutting a square shape. (refer to pic 2)

 

After you’ve cut most of the way through, use the flathead screwdriver to push the flap inward once three sides are open. When one side is partially cut, you can push it into the drum. (refer to pic 3)

 

Once there's a hole in the drum, you can now install the drum tap. (refer to pic 4)
