I have never dealt with 2" fittings but from memory hevac use to do them... You can all them on the naas road...

Come off with 2" fittings use a length of 2" pipe and then clip the 2" flex hose onto the end of it..

Alternatively use 2" philmac fittings which seem to be popular amoung the farming company...

Use 2 inch Philmac fittings with 2 inch Hydrodare pipe. I have done this in Sprinkler systems for Golf clubs and for Football pitches. You can then step down to whatever size Tap you want to dispense the Water.
