I want to be able to control the air flow from my air pump into my tank. Standard size tubing. What size valve do I need? 1/2? 5/8?

Hi Victoria, for air use I would use one of the Jordin or Como air valves. I used the Little Fishies for my powerhead to regulate water flow, I don't know if it would work for air. Also, the Little Fishies valves are for 1/2 and 5/8" tubing, which is quite large. I hope this helps. Ed.

Standard 2 1/4" PVC piping. Only thing you really need are the inlets, wire, elbows and tubing, hangers too

1/4 in. OD is what I use. Works great. Also, This pump is solid made. The adjustable air flow is good and the pump is quiet.

I used the one made for a previous gauge. Think it should be 2 and 1/8 inch diameter. Suggest you contact Moeller to get specifics. I used the Moeller gauge which was compatible with the tank.

5/16" . If you use 3/8" you may want a hose clamp. It is NOT 1/4" between the pump and manifold. You use 1/4" beyond the manifold.

This should fit any unit. The tube has a male fitting at the end of the tube. All you need to do is cut the hose on your unit and insert the male fitting. It's a tight fit and I used a little soap on the fitting to make the job a little easier. I wonder if water pik is just selling the tube. You could probably get what you need from a pet store. The tubes they use on the air pumps look about the right size.

You can use a special adapter which can be fitted to any air pump called Topeak Pressure-Rite Anti-Air Loss Connector. I did have to tinker with it by not screwing it completely otherwise it would let air go through for whatever reason.

I ordered this valve to replace an air mattress valve. It did not fit. I looked up the tube you are describing and I do not think it will fit. When I ordered a valve from the manufacturer of the air mattress, it worked. I suggest you contact the River Run II folks. Sorry, cannot be more helpful.

This is for 1/8 tubing for airbrushes. I assume you're trying to fit a small garage compressor to an airbrush so... You'll need a reducer to fit 1/4 NPT, plus pipe threads are tapered and these connectors are straight thread with gaskets to seal them. I hope this helps, there are some sellers on Amazon that sell fittings to change from one brand to another and include some pipe thread sizes. Just type "airbrush fittings" and a bunch will show up.

2.5 would work. I believe a 6 cfm would be better. I started with a 2.5 and had trouble getting to 28hg. the 6cfm does it fast. There is only one valve for suck. The other valve is a thumb release, to release the pressure. I put a 1/4" brass valve and connected a 1/4" npt quick change. then i used a barbed fitting that would be used on a quick change and attached 1/4" vinyl hose. i did the same on the pump for easy breakdown. It is important to have a valve on the suck. This valve shgoul;d be closed when you turn on pump then open. When you are done vacing close valve then turn off pump. This keeps the chamber from receiving contaminant blow-back from pump. This is what i know. Good luck. ps. Contact In Lab Designs (Amber she is very nice) and they will put the valve and quick change on for a fee. then it will be easy to pick up the rest at ACE

The tubing size is 1/4 inch. Valve is doing what it is suppose to. Works good. Hope this helps/

The size of air hose is up to you. You need to provide the standard 1/4" NPT connector or I guess any other fitting you prefer.

I use 3/8 x 5/8. I've used 3/8 x 1/2 tubing in the past, but I prefer 3/8 x 5/8. Also, invest in the M20 fill port if you decide to get this.

This is a basic drip system manifold. It connects to a 1/2 inch PVC water supply and then you use 1/4" tubing to connect to drip heads. Is that what you want to do via a supply from a pump?

The 3/8 5/8 defines the type of tubing the fittings will accept. You'll need to match up the thread size of the fittings, which should be G1/4" like on this reservoir's in/out ports.

The hose that comes with it is 1/2 inch which is to connect to a valve bank, a manifold. The manifold itself has numerous valves which themselves connect to the air devices, these are generally 3/8 inch. Remember to buy anti siphoning, inline stop valves. Hope this helped.

I used 1/2" Female pipe by 3/4" pex. The valve is 1/2" but I wanted to upsize the pex tubing for increased flow.
