Found this in a pasture on our place today. Made of brass, hollow inside, no threads anywhere. My guess is a tap for a tree to get sap out. Anybody know for sure?

I have never seen a tree tap with a valve. I agree barrel tap.

Pretty common for barrel taps to break right there. Guess the party got rough? :laughing7:

Yours has the lines on like the Brit made ones.
