BeeCastlePack of 2 Durable Honey Gate for Extractor,Honey Extractor Tap,Beekeeping Equipment (Yellow Light Color)

Robber screens fit my 10 frame boxes well. Easy to install and remove when not needed. Satisfied with purchase.

quick delivery, exactly as advertised. Does the job. Made the process of bottling honey much easier.

Overall, I’m quite satisfied with these honey gate valves. Installation was straightforward—I easily attached them to two buckets I purchased from Walmart using a drill bit from Lowe’s. Even with the added cost of the valves and the bit it was still much cheaper than buying pre-installed buckets.My only concern is a slight drip on one of the valves. I double-checked the washer placement and everything seems correct, but there’s just a tiny drip. It’s not a major issue, and certainly not enough to warrant a return for the amount of usage I'll have. The second valve works perfectly with no leaks.For the price, these valves are a great value, and I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a budget-friendly solution for honey harvesting!

looks good will not know until honey flow

Perfect

I use a lot of honey in my natural skin care business so I source it locally in large quantities. When I ordered this, I somehow accidentally ordered two (a total of 4 pieces). As I go through enough honey to put all four to use, I never returned the extra two. I finally got time to install these in some 4 gallon buckets last week and am very disappointed to say that they leak bad enough that I lost about a quart of honey per bucket, adding up to $100 in loss! I had put drip pans under the spout and went to a multi-day market and came home to quite a mess as the drip pans overflowed. Not just one, but ALL four of these are leaking. I am so frustrated as I now have 25 small containers of honey without lids floating around. I don't feel it is right to now use that in my skin care as it's been exposed to the elements and will now be crystalizing much faster. I was simply trying to find a way to store honey and be able to remove some from the storage container without removing the lid every day, again, unnecessarily exposing it to the elements. I will take the loss and keep looking for a remedy but learn from my mistake and don't buy these!

This product is one of the better honey valves out there but they just don’t know what they are truly selling. The gasket is much larger than normal so you get a great seal to the bucket. The threads are wider so it won’t strip. The locking screw has a washer so it allows for a tighter on / off. If the washer was part of the wing nut it would be even better. Anyway if you are looking for a good one this is the one.

I saw some negative reviews on these regarding leaks and no instructions with product.Ok so yup no instructions to speak of but I useda 1-3/4” hole saw and cut holes in my buckets, with enough space so the nut on the inside could turn. Cleaned up holes of all burrs to ensure a tight seal, left o ring on the outside as I think they intended and tightened inside nut by hand with gate valve facing up, once I had nut as tight as I could get, I held that in place with one hand and rotated gate valve on the outside to the correct position ( handle to the right) this effectively tightened everything down. Filled buckets up with water and left overnight to check for leaks. No leaks and water doesn’t leak, can’t see how honey could. I feel if you over tightened it the O ring would probably distort and leak.
