Round cooler bulkhead question

[Nikeirons]

Has anyone bought a bulkhead from Bargin Fittings to convert a 10 gallon round Gott cooler into a mash tun?
If so did you get the standard or long bulkhead?

TIA

Question. What do you plan on installing on the inside?

I would be installing a bazooka screen inside.

I didn't use a GOTT cooler, but in my Igloo, I used the standard cooler bulkhead.

If you look in the second picture in this link, you can compare the indentation on the outside of the cooler where the valve is to yours. If you have a deeper indentation, then get the extra long bulkhead.

They seem to be the same. I just want to make sure I can turn the valve freely.

No problems with the valve at all. It closes all the way.
