flush scupper

[Brenden]

For all of you guys out there who have installed the x metal scupper, how do u get it flush with the hull??
Go by wammers trick?? heat??
or is there a way to grind down the pvc so that it will fit on there at the angle of the hulll??


TO SEAL THE DEAL

what would be good and strong to seal up and hold on the valve
5200??




thanks

Superjett has a method for this where he uses a cd and makes a flush surface using 5200

That does not work with the x-metal style scupper.

What you need to do is grind out the 2" tube so that the tube fits all the way in the scupper, while maintaining the required angle.

Forgive the crappy picture.:biggrin:

yes i am certain the cd method wont work on the xmw


but would heat be a good way to make it flush

if so how much will the pvc bend

 

[Rickster]

Heat may do it, but any kink in the pipe would restrict the flow of water.

It's kind of intimidating to get into at first, but once the hole is in the hull and you can see the angles required, it's easy to do.

I had to actually heat up and bend my pvc pipe at the end so it would be perpendicular with the scupper, i have the wamilton scupper. SXR

slide the scupper tube into the hull, let 1" hang out, where it meets the hull, trace it out, slide the scupper tube back out, cut it off at your line, this should work out for the scupper.

This is how I do it.:biggthumpup:

do that plus sand the edges at an angle..... you will notice if you dont the short side of the angel barley slides in to the xmetal scupper.....

 

[Brenden]

yes i have it cut to the angle of the hull...its just getting that scupper to touch all the way around

You can also find flex tubing at Home depot or McMaster that will fit over the 2" PVC with a little force. Just 5200 it in place. Same type of tubing Blowsion uses with their 1 way valve.
