Cheapest place for couplers?
 

I was just looking for teh cheapest place to get some 2.5" silicone couplers. I need probably half a dozen straight and just as many 90s. I was thinking eBay but the shipping can be killer. Any trhoughts?

truck shops

Cheapest place I've seen is this plumbing/piping shop... they will sell it by the inch and then you can cut it yourself.

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

Straights will be easy to find or improvise, 90s will be a little tougher to find cheap. Are you looking for actual silicone couplers, or will just anything do? If you are looking for actual silicone couplers, hit us up with an email, and we might be able to put together a package deal for you.

i bought a stick of "cut it yourself coupler" on ebay a while back. It was a good deal when i bought it

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

i bought my HTS 3 ply silicone couplers on ebay a while back too. IMO it was a damn good deal. 7 for like $30 or something

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

You can get the straights hella cheap, like craig said.

Anything with an angle or reduction will cost you a bit.

There is a pnumatic/hydraulic store in Tucson that sells it crazy cheap. I got 4 feet of 2.0" for less than $20.00. When I told them what I paid for 4 3" couples of the same daimeter, they laughed at me and reaffirmed that I suck at life.

Home depot coupler work really good right at the compressor :-[

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

Im melting, Im melting! (Said the 2" coupler from home depo) I wil leave burnt rubber on your pipes and your compressor housing too!

BOAT SUPPLY STORE!!! FTW

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

yea but home depot doesnt have 2.5 couplers. I was there yesterday

Re: Cheapest place for couplers?
 

the 2 inch are are like 2.5 ID because there labeled for 2 inch PVC pipe. There ment to fit over PVC. PVC is very thick I.E. use a tape measure from the store the inside diameter is like 2.5.

Silicone hose is used in many industrial applications and all hydrualics/hose shops carry it.I have always bought mine [Greenline brand] there and pay $20 for enough to make 6 2.5" and then just get your 90's etc from a turbo shop type place.You can get really nice oil lines made for cheap as well along with any other automotive plumbing supplies as well as the fact you get really nice industrial grade silicone.I bought a small bag of BPST to NPT adapters as well.The yellow pages are your friend when doing custom automotive work.
