Looking for a valve or spigot for my RO storage bucket

I am using a food grade Brute trash can to collect and hold my RO water. I am looking for a spigot or valve that i can install in the Brute trash can to dispense water.

 

Does anyone have a suggestion on a valve/spigot or a source?

 

Thanks.

I used a 1" bulkhead and a pvc ball valve. Ha sent let me down yet. The brute side is flexible enough to let the bulkhead seal

I used a homemade bulkhead and a 3/4" ball valve on my 23 gallon Rubbermaid ATO storage container.

You could also use one of the plastic hose bibs like installed on the bottom drain of hot water heaters since they contain no metal parts.

^I'm just about to do that, I was going to build a stand but a little end table like that makes a lot of sense, I'll have to keep an eye out for something similar..

Raising the cans is a great idea. I built a stand out of plywood tall enough to get buckets and 5G bottled water type jugs under the stand to fill and for storage. I put a barbed nipple and short piece or 3/4" vinyl tubing on the ball valve to fill with.

Yeah it worked good for me. These tables are solid wood and never failed me even sitting with full containers.
