Drum Tap for 2 Inch NPT Drums
The Action 2GF is a drum tap designed for containers with a 2 inch NPT opening. It suits industrial or workshop users who need to dispense liquids from standard drums. The aluminium construction resists corrosion in typical fluid-handling environments. It is not suited for buyers who need a smaller thread size or a non-metallic valve body.
5 GPM Flow Rate Through 2 Inch NPT
The single specification that decides fit is the 5 GPM flow capacity through a male 2 inch NPT connection. This rate determines whether the tap can empty your drum quickly enough for the process. Verify your drum outlet matches the thread standard before purchase. The part will not work with drums that have a different thread pitch or diameter.
Aluminium Body Handles Standard Fluid Temperatures
The aluminium body conducts heat away from the fluid path during normal dispensing. No powered cooling or moving parts are present so operational noise is negligible. Power draw is zero because the valve is manually operated. The metal construction tolerates ambient workshop temperatures without deformation.

Questions about this item
What does the 5 GPM rating mean when the tap is installed on a drum?
The 5 GPM figure shows the maximum flow the tap can pass under normal gravity or low-pressure conditions, so a full drum will empty at that rate until the level drops.
How does the 2-inch NPT thread affect what containers I can use it with?
The (M)NPT 2 In. thread mates with any female 2-inch NPT opening, which is the standard bung size on most steel and plastic drums sold for bulk liquids.
What clearance do I need to mount this aluminum tap on a drum?
The tap threads directly into a 2-inch NPT bung and requires only enough vertical space for the handle to swing, typically a few inches above the drum's top surface.
