Simply insert the Chem-Grip into a barrel bung, insert your feed tube through the perforated gasket and strap it to the anchoring post. You now have a vertical pickup line and a sealed off barrel from the outside elements. The gasket is per-perforated to allow two pickup lines to be inserted through into the barrel and seal around the tube like a straw.
The science behind keeping your pickup line vertical. Traditionally, barrels have bung fittings to fill and draw chemical from them. When you insert a small pickup line inside the over 2” hole it's nearly impossible to keep the pickup line completely vertical. This means your line is laying in the barrel at an angle, this angle is the leading cause of foot valve failure.
A foot valve is designed to have the rubber diaphragm lay completely flat (horizontal). The only way to have this critical component accomplished is to have your pickup line vertical. Over time, if a foot valve lays at an angle the rubber diaphragm starts to fail and roll over on itself, using gravity against you. If we keep the pickup vertical by strapping it to the Chem-Grip we are now using gravity in your favor. This keeps the foot valve from failing prematurely.
