zeovit member EWAN I think is using a cole parmer pump. If he's not here maybe you can catch up w/ him on RC,same name there. He has the big Schuran Jetsteam 1 thread over there. I think I remember him saying he spelled Schuran wrong though and people were having a hard time searching it.
HTH,

Its possible its just Santoprene, or Norprene... if you get stuck we sell 1m lengths of it. Its usually 3mm or 5mm.

Nick,

What are you trying to do? If you are trying to use a feed pump, you can do it with a cheap pump. I used a maxijet and some 1/4 tube that you use for ice makers, same as the tube they use on the jetstream. I modified the maxijet with an adapter for the 1/4 tube from lowes. I think you are making this more of a hassle then it should be bro.

I was told I needed a cole parmer pump for the reactor and also a feed tubingwith it I bought the damn pump 225 dollars later and now I needed to know which tubing was needed with it But Mshur found the link for me and I ordered the tubing and recieved it yesterday
Thanx everyone

Scott, I have used the same construction in the beginning. It worked fine for the first weeks until I got the same problems I had in the past. If the reactor is feed by a pump, you need to reduce the flow at the output. The main problem is the installed reduction will get plugged over the time by sediments.

The setup with the peristaltic pump does not need a flow reduction at the output so this could not happen.
