Help! i broke my sweet pressure gauge from Intex sand filter

[DarK_HumOuR]

hi all.
i stupidly broke it
in INTEX site it described as 11224 spare part.
but there is no any other info about the size of the screw etc.
unfortunately i live in Greece and such parts are too hard to find.
when i was trying to search for if i get very confused.
i can't understand what size is the screw!
i used a Caliper ( thickness gauge), as you can see in the photos and i took 2 measures.
one in mm (9.75mm) and one in inches (0.383in).
but i can't understand what 1 1/8" or 1 1/4" means, because all that i have found in internet are in these imperial scales.
please see the photos and help me to understand what is the thickness of my pressure gauge in imperial scale.
in Greek internet i have found some parts that maybe are ok for replacement, but they are described as "water" or "air" or even "glycerine"!
so, i am a bit more confused!
i am afraid that i will buy a wrong replacement.
after all the search i found this:

μανομετρο φιλτρου πισινας IML/ASTRALPOOL BACK

κατάλληλο για φιλτρο πισινας IML/ASTRALPOOL 1/8" τοποθετείται μόνο πάνω στο εξαεριστικό "T" του φίλτρου

www.my-pool.gr

it sais: BACK CONNECTION 1/8"
is from another brand but i am not sure if this fits in my screw. (the same problem with imperial metrics again! )
please guide me what type of gauge i can buy, because i cant find the exactly the same.
thanks in advance.
sorry for my bad English.

The correct part number is Intex 11224

Maybe use this google search to see if you can find a place to purchase:

It is difficult to say without being able to put a thread pitch gauge on the screw threads to confirm, but the diameter of the threads that you measure matches the diameter of 1/8" NPT threads.




My guess is that it is a 1/8" NPT thread, so any gauge with a similar range, and a back connection in that size should fit.

but unfortunately i cant find it in EU Amazon or anywhere else.

thank you very much!
now i am sure that is 1/8"
i read this similar thread that refers to an adapter, but i wasn't sure in which side was the female and the male connections.
please see it by yourself if that helps

Pressure gauge for Intex sand filter

I think I need a new pressure gauge for my sand filter; the gauge never moves. It will register 0 with the pump off but when the pump is on it never goes above 5. It's the gauge that originally came with the system. Given the fact that Intex has proprietary sizing on all of their equipment, I...

i just need to know if the male part (that fit to filter) is 1/8. i think it is.
if it is do you believe that any manometer in the market with similar psi or bar scales will do the job?
if yes, i saved the day!

thanks!

Yes, this is the part:

https://www.amazon.com/Milton-FNPT-MNPT-Fitting-Adapter/dp/B01MA21J4F

The male is 1/8 thread, the female is 1/4"

Assuming that the new gauge is 1/4"

Yes, it is pretty much a standard part. You just need to get the proper bottom or back connection.

The gauge you linked to in your first post should work.
