Plastic Honey Gate

The 1 1/4” honey gate is the most popular size for bottling honey. It quickly turns the flow of honey on and off, making it extremely easy to fill your honey jars without the sticky mess.

For a 1-1/4 inch gate use 1-5/8 inch hole saw, for 1-1/2 inch gate use 2 inch hole saw and for a 2 inch gate use 2-3/8 inch hole saw.

Note: You MUST USE ONLY food-approved, white plastic tanks when making your own honey tank. Putting honey in a regular plastic garbage can (that may have been treated with dangerous chemicals) is a sure recipe for disaster.
