Title: What are these called please?
Post by: Tim82 on June 15, 2009, 05:09:20 pm: Hi, does anyone know firstly, what are these screwless jubilee clip things called(sorry the picture isn't too clear)? They're the kind you find on the hosing in pump boxes and you use pliers to close them. I need to buy some more. Where can you get them and can you get them in different sizes?

Secondly, does anyone know if you can buy replacement inner tubes for these metal rims (that fit on a trolley/sack truck)?

Thanks.

Yes i do mean that i'm forever stabbing myself.My minibore hose often leaks there, i believe because it's hot and expands etc, then after a few times it leaks. I have two clips on anyway.

That card i sent you has been quite a success.

Err..... Ian the point is i dont want jubilee clips because the screw gets in the way. The point of me asking is to find out what the O clips that can be unclipped are called so i can find some more.

Thanks tho!

Post by: Clive McDonald on June 15, 2009, 06:19:27 pm: zero clips or o clips. all wfp stockists gardiners, cleantech etc stock them. I thought they were called atticker clips but the search bar didn't agree with me either.

Post by: dai on June 15, 2009, 07:51:15 pm: You can't buy just inner tubes or tyres, you have to buy the whole wheel.
The wheels are rubbish too, they are supposed to have ball bearings, I don't know why as the hole in the wheel is that big it allows a good half inch play on the axles.
I was looking at some gokart wheels today, they really are the business, that would be the thing, a set of alloys for my sack truck.
