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

perfect! buy as many as you can afford. well made and smooth; thick so it wont bend wile tapping it in and all you have to do to remove it it just give it a 1/4 turn and pull it out. sealed up tight in the tree and to the tubes. this is the perfect tap for maple trees.

I like these taps. I drilled a 5/16 hole, tapped tree, added some tubing, and hung milk jugs from the hook. Sap flowed well. Removal is easy and the clean up is easy with some hot water.

Found this package

I am quite impressed with the quality of this item. I am glad I decided to purchase these stainless steel type instead of the black plastic ones I was considering. These are obviously machined from thick walled stainless stock. There is a slight taper on the side intended to go into the tree. That side is approximately 1 1/2 (37mm) long. The side that receives the hose measures at exactly 1 (26mm) long. Please see the picture I attached to this review. We have two maple trees in our yard. This will be the first spring my sons and I have tried tapping and sugaring them. Looking forward to the sweet results!

I like these so much better than the plastic ones

HAD ITS ON PLACE TO HANG BUCKET.STAINLESS SHOULD LAST A LONG TIME

First time tapping my trees, I got one leaker, but the spile was fully set. The other spile only went in halfway and is the primary tap/ Nice product, would definitely recommend.

They did what they were suppose to do.

A little spendy, but worked perfectly for our first maple tapping season. Make sure you use the correct drill bit size, otherwise you will have issues with it plugging.

High quality metal taps delivered promptly. Well done.
