Sunlite Bicycle Pump Replacement Hose for Model W and M Floor Pump

When I received the product, the first thing I did was put it in the hole at the pump output. What I found was the threads went in without being screwed in. The new hose fitting was smaller diameter than the original. I measured the new fitting and determined that it is an M10X1.25 thread. To get it to work with my pump, I stuffed the hole with cotton to prevent epoxy from plugging the pump output at the bottom of the hole and gave it a good packing down. I filled the hole with JB Weld which sets up as hard as a rock. I drilled a pilot hole in the center of the hole then widened it before drilling with the tap sized drill bit of 11/32. I removed the cotton from the bottom of the hole and tapped a new set of threads M10X1.25. The rubber washer that was supplied with the hose was too thick and didn't allow enough of the threads of the fitting to be screwed in, so I screwed it in without the washer. I then mixed up another batch of epoxy and coated the connection as can be seen in the photo. This did two things: 1. It made the connection air tight; and 2. It strengthened the connection because, as strong as JB Weld is, it wouldn't survive sideways pressure from general use without reinforcing it. The pump is functional again. Last item to do was I transferred the European stem adapter over from the old hoze. The adapter is brass and can be seen in the second photo. I am looking forward to another 20 years of service from this old, dependable, and well made pump.

It is October 2022. I purchased this exact hose back in the summer of 2012 to replace the original hose on my metal bicycle pump. The first hose I bought (this exact one) was very sturdy, and had been used to pump up bicycle tires, soccer balls, footballs, wheelbarrow tires, and on a few instances I used it to fill a car tire that was low, and a portable air compressor tank (those last two required probably 200-300+ pumps from the bicycle pump. It worked like a champ. I only bought a replacement because the hose got bent/cut and slowly started to leak when I was trying to pump up a bicycle tire last weekend.I just bought the exact replacement, and I expect (or hope) that it will last another 10+ years. Highly recommend this product, if you're careful with it, and don't bend or kink the hose too frequently.

It's a replacement hose and it appears sturdy and it is functional. It does have a threaded coupling that attaches it to the pump and all threaded attachment points are not the same so it will only attach to certain pumps. If you have the old hose and have a teeny tiny bit of ability you can easily just swap the threaded ends out, which is what I did and I'm completely satisfied with its performance.

Took a chance that this might fit my old tire pump that's probably 30 years old or more, and got lucky! Hose length and threaded fitting to base of pump were right on target. The rubber in the old hose had succumbed to dry rot, but the rest of the pump is in decent shape, so I'm happy to anticipate a few more years of service out of it for the few dollars this part cost.

This does not include the check valve that prevents the air in the tire from coming back out into the pump on the upstroke. To make a new check valve, I made one from a small rubber sheet about twice as thick as a kid's balloon material. I cut a rectangular piece from the rubber sheet about 1.125" long by 0.312" wide, formed it into a cylinder the same diameter as the well hole where the hose screws on and pushed it into the bottom of that well. The seam of hat cylinder must be opposite to the 1/8" air hole where the pump air empties into the hose. It worked on two old pumps where the check valve had failed.

I have an old Hollywood Accessories classic hand pump and after many years of service the fitting end of the hose broke off leaving the pump useless.I did a quick search for replacement hoses and this one looked like a perfect replacement. You always have to be certain that the end that screws into the pump output fitting matches the threads of the old hose.This fit perfectly and the hose is about one or two inches longer than the original.The quality is excellent and it was better than paying $20 or more for a new pump when mine just needed a new hose.I highly recommend this hose.

I bought this knowing I might have to cut it. I was trying to find a replacement hose for my Husky small electric tire pump (harder than I would have imagined). I was hoping to cut this so I could hose clamp one side to my pump and use the value lock that came with the new hose. However, the lock is hard to push and it doesn't reach the valve stem. I had to cut it off also and use another.

The end that attaches to the tire valve is standard size. The threaded end is too small for my pump and no seller puts the thread size or brands of pumps they fit. So I learned there is no industry standard for those and I don't know by the descriptions if another one will fit. It appears to be a plot to make it easier to sell us a whole new pump.

too short....too hard to use
