EWL Hand Pump parts, anything local?

[stevemc32]

Looking for some parts to get my recently acquired England Worthside Ltd pump into operational order.

Here it is.



I need to find replacements for the bottom valve and the cylinder top as both of these have some cracking that prevent the pump from operating.



Serious Googling has led to a couple of international suppliers that may be of assistance but I'd be interested in hearing of any local suppliers if they exist before going o/s for the parts.

Cheers,
Steve.

Some sort of glue maybe ? To get you going but order the parts anyway so if the glue gives up you have replacements on hand.

Yeah thought about that but the parts are all nylon so I don't think there's anything that will stick to em.

I stopped in at EWL in Keighly last time I was in the UK.
Very helpful people they were.
If you don't find anything local I'd give them a call and discuss what you need.

Got a response from EWL saying they no longer supply parts for this one. Looks like I might be up for a complete pump unless there are any other suggestions on possible suppliers.

Would it be possible to have one turned up out of delrin?

Both parts could be turned, would imagine that the parts would be nylon.

Yeah they could be turned but neither of them are simple parts, the lower part has a small ball valve inside it and the top plate is used to mount the pump assembly and the pouring neck. I'd love to be able to get hold of some spares.

A1 Barstuff in the UK had complete pump assemblies on their website but pulled them down after I made an order, cancelled the order and told me they can no longer get them.

Have you tried NNL Brewery Services? They say on their website that they can source spares:

Cheers Jez, hadn't seen that one.

I'll give em a call.

Thanks.
