RedRum Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 I have a Riteheat pot with a heated spout and I’m not having success using the ball valve threaded onto heated spout on bottom of pot. I need a steady flow for pouring baits and the ball valve I bought doesn’t maintain the heat and clogs. Does anyone know of a specialty ball valve that will work? It’s 3/4” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PID, thermocouple, rope heater and some ingenuity will allow you to heat the ball valve directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLuvin175 Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 You could also try wrapping it in woven fiberglass tape to help insulate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering aramid fiber though I have no experience either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
