I’m looking for a 3” x 9” pump tube (preferably with flange) if anyone has got one for sale?
Not www.kodidistributing.com before anyone suggests it (or any other USA site)
I just don’t want to wait a month for one to arrive from China, so hoping someone in the UK can help.
Cheers

Re: Wanted! (Not Dead or Alive)
significantly for clear materials.
Good luck in your search.
Maybe not your cup o' tea, but I get my tubes as parts, from the hardware store. The 3" ABS plastic tube is 12" along the outside radius measurement. The "flange" is formed by gluing in a short piece of pipe into the fitting, then filing and sanding to radius and smooth the square edge from the inside. I use a gauge, and have had no problems with blisters or other over-pumping issues. Personally, I have no desire to see my package squished up inside the tube. Clear PVC pipe and fittings in 3" ID exist, too, but the cost goes up Good luck in your search.

Looks a bit like work to me and that’s just not my thing!
Plus, I do like to see what’s going on in the tube.

Thanks for your ten second search () I should have also mentioned that I want a straight tube and not tapered.kiwibop wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 3:24 pm A 10 second google search found this in the UK: https://regulation.co.uk/products/c2238 ... 2227417275
I’ve actually had one of these tubes before (Mustang) and it was shit. The valve leaked, then when I did it up (finger tight) it split the plastic…

Re: Wanted! (Not Dead or Alive)
If you're looking at eBay, look for vendors that say "UK ship" or something similar. You'll usually have to pay a little more, but sometimes it's worth it for the faster delivery.
What about EU sources? I ordered a Froehle tube a few years ago, from Austria to the central USA. It made it from Austria to Pennsylvania in two days, then spent the next two weeks bouncing around half a dozen states, including back to Pennsylvania once (according to the Post Office's tracking page) before they condescended to deliver it.

Re: Wanted! (Not Dead or Alive)
The tubes I have mentioned as coming from China, are on eBay, I can only find one seller (two ads) who has 9” x 3” straight tubes available.AndyJ wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 1:14 am If you're looking at eBay, look for vendors that say "UK ship" or something similar.

Not looked specifically at EU sources, just scoured the first several pages of Google…
Also, since we left the EU () getting anything delivered from there is a fucking nightmare these days…

I'd suggest looking for a US vendor, but USPS has a grudge against the Royal Mail, or something. Shipping from the US to the UK is high.
What about Canada? Is postage cheaper from a Commonwealth country?

Hi , have you tried Mister B online has what you might be looking for. I'm thinking of using them for an LA 2" pump cylinder and LA hush pump but am keen to know what the reviews are like regarding the expensive electric pump if you fancy a trip to Amsterdam you could mix a city break and visit the shop which is bang in the centre.
