Eheim Parts???

[jalisco]

Normally my internet research skills are stellar but for the life of me I cannot find a replacement Eheim 1260 male thread x hose barb outlet fitting.

I am making a salt water mixing station and I want to come off the pump mixing bypass manifold with tubing via eheim's thread by hose barb with lock down ring and then transition to pvc for a fill hook using another one of those same fittings.

I know I can get an after market thread x hose barb but I prefer the lock down ring to non metalic clamps, zipties, ect.

Do you guys know of any place that sells them?

I like to use regular PVC with the plastic clamp but if you like the lockdown:

I have a Eheim 1250 and it was missing parts as well and I found it really hard to find the inlet and outlet for my pump as well. It has been a while since I did it but I went on eheim's official site as well as Dr F & S. Third party parts are hard to find that actually work correctly with the eheim pumps.

Cobalt International handle Eheim in the US. You should be able to find parts there.
Also check BigAlsonline.

Thank you! It arrived yesterday. At $15 it wasn't bad but it would be nice if we could order the pumps without them for $30 less.

How did you find that site btw?

Lesson learned, I should have went with PVC MPT x hose barb fittings with plastic clamps. The limp python tubing doesn't have a thick enough wall to be engaged by the eheim lock down fittings.
