I'm looking for 2 Eheim quick disconnect/double isolation valves that come included with the eheim 2213.

I broke 2 of mine and I now realize that I actually NEED them for what I'm planning to do.

I don't have alot of cash right now, And I was hoping not to pay full retail price for a set of these (like $30 each locally), so maybe there is a member here who has some lying around in a "never used" parts bin :)

I have $16 USD in my paypal account right now, and if the cost will be greater than that, I will have to send the rest as a PP eCheck.



Is there any kind member who can help me out?
 
nobody has a couple of these lying around eh?
 
I know... i have 2 eheims, but i broke two of my valves trying to screw bushings onto them.

I still have half of the valves... id settle for buying the other halves.

amazing valves, but they are indeed expensive.... I was hoping someone had a couple laying around that they werent using.

you know, I would like a few of these myself, as well as a couple of matching ball switch/valves to maybe create an alternate return loop through a cooler for the summer... I wonder if we can find some bulk deal and split it up?
Click to expand...

might be worth a look, and while I seriously wouldnt mind having like 50 leftover or something, what would we do with the leftovers to makeup for the cash we spent lol.


the threads on these valves (the 12mm versions) is a 3/8" NPT thread, which means that a threaded reducer bushing will allow you to connect larger pvc pipe or other things that can be screwed onto pipe fittings.

I put a 1/2" x 3/8" reducer bushing on mine, and now have them connected to PVC.

Im doing the plumbing for my filters now, and I need 2 more of these valves so I can put them on the intake line.
my other two are still functional on the output side :D .... btw dont screw bushings on too tightly.... it causes the valves to break apart, and crushes the little clips, preventing you from putting them back together.
 
thats the american site.... its almost $30 canadian.... although i cant find there canadian site right now..... wth.
 
I'd go in for it, cause i really need a set, or like I mentioned, Half of a set :)
Id settle for buying just the "bottom" half of these, the parts with the threads that the other half screws onto.
I have 2 parts that have the screw on collars.... i broke the other halves :(

Anyway, If I dont find a set (or half a set) of a these, then the canister part of my canister filters are going to become a part of the "permenant" plumbing.

when you think about it though, I wouldnt ever really need to remove them, since I can simply remove the media baskets.

If you find such a deal, I'll be in on it for a set, maybe two :)
we should contact eheim and see what it would cost for a bulk order of these things.
