Peristaltic Pump replacement tubing.

[BASA]

Found this used Peristaltic Pump online that was at a price I could not pass up. So I bought it without fully thinking it through. It did not come with any tubing.

So now I’m looking at purchasing the tubing, looking around i am discovering it is really expensive to buy that pump specific tubing. Looking around a bit more on the internet I have found I can get the correct size Silicone tubing for a much lower price than the Manufacturer brands or the pharmacy/ Medical grade brands that are the suggested replacements.

Just want a little input on the subject before I order. Anyone out there have any experience with this?

BASA,
I am not sure if they can help or not but Spectrapure has been building the Litermeter for years and have lots of experience with peristaltic pumps and tubing. When I poke to them about tubing they told me there are lots of different quality levels and some do not hold up well. Thye have done lots of experimentation and found some they like, you might give them a call or email.
