T Fitting on Heater Hose

[paflytyer]

What vendor here has these hose barb tees part number 32361 from Midland Metal?

This is the 8th time you've asked that same question. The answer is "there isn't one"

Have you called Midland? It looks like they're a wholesale company. You could ask them who carries their 32361 part. They probably don't sell one part at a time.
From their website:

Midland Metal is a complete master distributor of valves, fittings, nipples, specialties and other key product lines. We sell through a network of plumbing, well water, filtration, fire protection, air conditioning, pool supply, waterworks and oilfield wholesalers throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean.
Phone (800)821.5725

Again, (I know you like to start with that), have you called them and asked which vendor of theirs carries that part? Or, you could just keep posting the same question here, or even buy OEM Toyota ones that have lasted you for 180k miles so far.

As stated in my original add-on post. I see most of the long time members here get their question answered more quickly than the short timers, and I am sure that their's a vendor that has these. At least not by you.


Yes, will ask again.

What makes you think there is a vendor here that carries that part?

 

[The Mack]

No knows vendor can order these and I could pay by Paypal?

 

[bluecruiser]

No one knows...thread over

 

[The Mack]

Someone does I am sure.

You can try these people. Not sure they take PayPal but I have ordered tractor parts from them with my visa.

For some reason, he doesn't want that. He only wants one thing. A MUD vendor on here who has that part AND accepts Paypal. Trying to offer help or suggestions is a waste of your time.

Can someone please make this stop?

 

[The Mack]

Excuse me if I seem hard headed, but I prefer to support a MUD vendor here buy buying my parts from them if at all possible. It seems that most MUD vendors accept PP for payment. I have called six companies, they only take CC as payment. I no longer use CC anymore.

The pfran42 (bought his LED kit from him) is the man, he will order these for me and I can pay by PP.

My last bit of advice for you... Paypal offers a debit card that works anywhere Mastercard is accepted. Get it.

That's not supporting a vendor. Paul doesn't sell those. That's a guy buying something for you and you paying him for it. I assume Paul is good enough to not up charge you for a part you could order yourself. But if you want to support him, give him an extra 20% for his trouble.

There's is so much douche-baggery in this thread... I found myself hoping the op wouldn't have found help, damn you pfran! Lol

Hey...what do you expect? Its the 100 forum

I think the issue here is that Midland requires you to fill out a credit application in order to become a customer. There may be some other barriers to purchasing these direct as an international customer.

Here is where I stand:

--OEM sizes

0.688" OD (run section)
0.550" OD ("T")


--I called Midland and they are currently out of stock

5/8" (0.6250") (run section)
5/8" (0.6250") ("T")

Price: $18.62 each

--I also checked with pegasis0066's link:

Brass Barb Tee Fitting 5/8" ID Hose for Water Fuel Boat

5/8" (0.6250") (run section)
5/8" (0.6250") ("T")

Price: $7.95 each

--Dan, you mentioned two different (stainless steel) sized T-fittings from MMC:

2653K55
1/2" (0.5000") (run section)
1/2" (0.5000") ("T")

Price: $52.71 each

2653K57
5/8" = (0.6250") (run section)
5/8" = (0.6250") ("T")

Price: $63.29 each

Which MMC part is the best option in your opinion? The 5/8" model?

 

[APKhaos]

FWIW I searched fairly widely for a brass or stainless T that had the smaller diameter T leg without success.
You can force the 5/8" barb into the smaller hose that runs to the rear HE, but that's potentially creating another problem. I still have a large lump of brass that gives me the two diameters but is BIG and looks like it belongs on an old farm tractor. Been there for maybe 5 years now. One day I'll replace with OEM. The first OEM set were good for 180K miles, after all.

What difference does it make if some does or does not carry an item that they don't happen to stock? Lots of businesses don't stock items because it cost $$ to stock items.

Some of you people here are acting like the a-holes biotches on the Cayenne site.

I'm happy to buy some and resell them via the PayPal method at a significant markup. It will make up for the huge piles of cash that I don't make by selling actuator motors. If it would make you more comfortable to purchase I'll even buy a vendor star and pass the cost on the the end user.

FWIW, I'm ordering SS Tees from MM for my truck.

Yea, I have ordered six door lock actuators from you late last year. A great purchase in my opinion. I have sent two other your way that need these.


It looks like pfran42 will order these for me with a fair mark-up for the effort.

While living without credit cards is a noble venture (whether voluntary or not), it sure makes living in this digital world a pain in the butt...
