Stainless Steel Taps - Maple Sap Pail Spout & Hook - Spiles for making Maple Syrup (5)

Drill the hole.. insert the tap.. collect the juice.. how easy can it be

A little pricey, but durable and worked perfectly. Just wish I had more than two days of running sap when I decided to use them.

These are really nice taps! Ive tried a few different types, and these are probably the best. You can use them a couple different ways, you can either have them drip directly into the bucket, or you can use tubes with them.

Just what I wanted.

Way better then the plastic spouts. Worth every penny.

The style I was sent in 2021 has a bell or fluted shape to the end of the tap where 5/16 tubing would be attacked. Since the tip flares out, 5/16 tubing will not fit. I was a able to split the end of the tubing with a razor and shimmy it on,but def not ideal and almost caused a major issue for me as I was set up to install with a tube to 5gal. bucket system. Otherwise these are some seriously heavy duty beautiful taps. I noticed one review said he was worried about bending the tip when tapping into tree...You should NEVER be hitting any tap (metal or plastic) hard enough to bend it. These taps go in with 4 or 5 light taps super easy. If you are hitting any tap hard enough to worry about bending, you are driving your tap past the sap wood and potentially causing serious damage to the tree. Please do your research before you start drilling holes in live trees.

I really like the stainless steel and its sturdy. You can hammer it in and not break it. I did not like there is no place to attach the lid onto the spicket to keep debris out of the bucket.

Im glad I bought these instead of plastic ones. Easy to clean, easy to use.

Great to have just in case

we have sap for syrup making
