• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

We have an NPT/ANfitting that will be located inside our upper fuel tank to connect our vent line. We have made a custom two-sided welding flange that will allow us to attach an AN816 nipple on one side and an AN822 elbow on the other. We are looking for a sealant for the NPT threads that will be sitting in Avgas. ACS lists Dow 730 Solvent Resistant sealant as a viable option. The stuff is 92 bucks for 3 ounces! Does anyone have another sealant that will work in those conditions or do we just bite the bullet?


Any help is appreciated.


Jim
