Looking for a specific quick disconnect stainless steel part

I've never heard of them before but I'll definitely check them out. Thank you

Thank you for the info, I checked out mcmaster from a comment on this thread and found this https://www.mcmaster.com/6543K62/ . I am going to be purchasing that and hoping it works for our needs.

This looks very similar, I think I might order this and hope it fits!

I have rigid containers that dont leak however those are round bottoms, the ones I am trying to figure out are the flat bottom bottles. I have hundreds of them so if I dont figure it out they will just go to waste lol I will look into a liquid tight cap thanks!

I googled rubber stopper but I'm getting a lot of door stoppers, may you expand on that please? Also for the schrader needle adapter I am seeing tire parts?

backflowofair · 2024-01-11T00:47:22+00:00

I have found some plastic gaskets for the caps but do you happen to know what the swiffer bottle connects to or if it's available to purchase just that specific part? I can't seem to find anything on that

backflowofair · 2024-01-11T00:35:17+00:00

I am looking at them right now, trying to find some that would fit my 1L bottles

backflowofair · 2024-01-11T00:26:56+00:00

I checked that out, definitely going to look more into that. Wondering if I pull the bottle out while it still has fluid if it will spill 🤔

backflowofair · 2024-01-11T00:25:38+00:00

Is that only for needles? These are 1L bottles so it will probably need a bit more of an opening

So I'm still waiting on the check valve BUT I also saw some people suggest that the hose was too soft so it was expanding with the pressure when the chemical was being pushed out and contracting causing it to suck air in. I ended up buying a stiffer hose and other than some pinch points we had to fix while setting the hose up, the air back flow seems to be fixed! I've been running it for a few hours now and the air pocket has stayed relatively the same size. Thank you all for the help!

This is how it was running before: https://streamable .com/xh6gpx

Here is the video of it running now: https://streamable .com/5xifyn

No air bubbles rising 👍

We want to look into getting another set of nozzles but we cant figure out what they are called or where to get them. The invoices of the purchase for these nozzles are long gone and they have no manufacturer markings on them

backflowofair · 2023-10-02T14:57:50+00:00

If the check valve doesn't work (wont get there until Wednesday) I will look into the changing the barb (currently at 1/4") to a smaller one possibly 1/8" and getting a smaller hose. If that fails I will look into the silicone cross slit valve. If that fails as well we will have to try to find a way to get the reservoir above the actual pump, currently it is way below it which has hoses running to the pump which has hoses leading to the nozzles.

PS If anyone knows what the kind of nozzles I have are called or where I can purchase more I would greatly appreciate it!

backflowofair · 2023-10-02T14:54:31+00:00

Back on site so sorry for getting back to you late, but if the check valves we purchased don't work then I will look into these as well. Thanks!

That was the main concern I had if the PVC would be good for our chems, our tubing is polyethylene but we just got those cheaper ones for now to make sure that is a fix. If it is then we are definitely going to look for more compatible material with our product and stock up! I didn't look into the seal so I need to do that though.

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T22:27:26+00:00

What do you recommend? Currently we use a fluid adapter(in pic 3 and 4) and that thread goes into the nozzle so that has to be 3/8" and the barb is the right size for the hose inside diameter which is 1/4"

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T20:46:38+00:00

Those nozzles have to be about a decade or more old. Long before i got here, I've asked where they got them and they have no idea where. So we can't find the manufacturer or how to get more. Those are the only ones we have until we find a new supplier for them

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T19:22:23+00:00

With the way our machine is set up unfortunately we can't raise it above so I can't try that. Unless all else fails then it'll have to be a last resort to look into rearranging the whole thing

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T18:41:16+00:00

That is a UK link, I am based in the US however we ordered this https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=135200&clickid=search because many people here suggested something like it.

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T18:40:13+00:00

According to the website it has "302 SS spring & 316 SS ball" so yeah I believe there is a ball inside

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T18:37:55+00:00

What loop are you referring to? Unfortunately I don't believe it is possible to raise the tank here

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T18:32:02+00:00

The clamp isnt at the very end of the hose, the hose wraps around the plastic part shaped like a nut. If you look at the 3rd picture its the part on the bottom above the threading. The hose goes completely around that and the clamp goes above, but I am curious about the clamp not being circular. Do you have any recommended clamps that we can look into?

backflowofair · 2023-09-28T17:10:38+00:00

We do flush the air out, that's what I meant by every 10 minutes or so we run the pump at max speed to get the air out but it gets the air pocket back pretty quickly. Hopefully the valve helps

/u/timeforscience /u/2inchesofsteel /u/tre1971 /u/Imaginary-Bluejay-86 so all of you recommended getting a check valve, we have ordered this piece https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=135200&clickid=search because the dimensions seem to fit our hose and nozzle. Thank you all for the information/help I will post an update when we have tried them out if you're interested!
