Stenner pump

[flyweed]

Quick question. I picked up a Stenner adjustable model on ebay pretty cheap, (the 45M5 model)..but it did NOT come with the connection nuts or ferrules to connect the 1/4" tubing to the pump. I looked at the Locke Well & Pump Company website under their "connection parts" and the only thing they have listed is 3/8" size....I don't think this is the correct size for my pump and tubing is it? Where can I get the correct ones???

Thanks
Dan

uswatersystems.com sells all the parts your looking for. If you call them they will figure out what you need

anyone?? nobody can confirm if these have the 1/4 nut and ferrule, or 3/8"???

I did take the pump to my local DIY store, to see if they have anything that may work..and nothing would thread onto the pump (wrong threads, from what the store guy said). I tried a brass 1/4" compression nut and it was too small, and then I tried a 3/8" nut and it was TOO big....so I tried a 5/16" and it was the perfect size, but again, the treads were wrong.

So.... as you can see I'll have to end up ordering the correct compression nuts and ferrules, but just need to confirm the actual correct size.

Since you say that you have 1/4" feed tubing, you need 1/4" nuts and ferrules for the pump tube. The pump tubes are standard size so you buy the nuts and ferrules for the feed tubing size.

Well Duh.....LOL....guess I never thought of that until you pointed it out! Thanks much. 1/4" nuts and ferrules are on order now!!
