1x Maple Tree Tap Spout (color of your choice)

Q: What size hole do I need to drill for this tap?

A: You'll need to drill a 15/32" to 1/2" hole into the tree. This is the standard size for maple sap taps and ensures a snug, leak-resistant fit.



Q: Is this tap safe to use on food-producing trees?

A: The tap is made from PLA, a plant-based plastic commonly used in food-adjacent applications. We recommend using it for sap collection only and rinsing before first use.



Q: Can this be reused season after season?

A: Yes! Simply remove the tap at the end of the season, rinse it clean, and store it for next year. PLA is durable enough for repeated seasonal use.



Q: Does this work on trees other than maple?

A: Yes — this tap can be used on any sap-producing tree that accepts a standard 15/32"–1/2" spout, including birch and walnut trees.



Q: How do I attach a collection bucket or tubing?

A: The spout is designed to drip sap directly into a hanging bucket placed below the tap. It is not designed for tubing systems.
