Climax domestic pump ...

so you have sorted it now then matt,that's good mate..
mike....

just about mate ,

just waiting on parts for the moment .

matt

dont forget the photos......
mike....

Its in a pile of bits at the moment mate , il get some tomorrow on here , I cant do anything to the pump untill get the parts . All i can do is to go to plumbing supplies and get the fittings and a tank connector . Going all copper 22mm soldered fittings . Makes life easy , and especially you get the yorkshire fittings with the ring of solder in them .... peice of cake

Just clean pipe and fitting up with wire wool , apply flux paste slide together and heat with blowlamp until see a nice ring of solder appear .... Is easy to heat too much so take it easy to not cook the solder !

matt
can you add 3x 1 1/4" cup seals leather on your list
mine is 1/32" over 1 1/4" which is not much at all
but leather seals should swell slightly when wet,
and under working load ??????
and how much of the gland packing you got left
would you have enough for mine as well ££££
please pm me with your price total inc postage to me
and will send you payment as soon as needed to you
thanks kev

kev you are a but too late i sent my order off today mate ....

i have sent you a pm with details in .

regards matt

thought i should get some pictures on how the progress is going ..

all the bits i need on the bench



the pump bolted down on the stand , in the background is some new fittings and adapters . I have chose to go 22mm copper as easy to work with in my opinion . I have 1" nipple to a adapter to 22 mm and have a 22mm tank connector . I have the copper pipe and fitting as well .



i plan to use a galv bucket as a water tank due to only a small pump so a big galv tank would be out of place .



all the parts for piston , conrod and glands all cleaned up waiting for leather cups now .

As i said previous the pump is staying in original paint . Il just rag it over with a oil rag to preserve it .

Regards , matt
