Default Party Pump Question

Hello everyone. I have an equipment question. I recently purchased a 4" party pump part number 7509E. I am going to use the party pump for some testing which will require me to install a spacer in between the 4" chrome plated party pump and the coupler assembly. The problem I am having is finding a spacer of the correct diameter and thread size. The thread size listed for the party pump is 3-1/4"-18 and that is shown here. What thread size is 3-1/4"-18? Is it 3.25"-18? If that what it is saying it is wrong because when I measured it it was closer to 9/16". Can someone please tell me the diameter and thread size for the male threaded connection at the bottom of the party pump? Thanks in advance for your help.

One more question. What is the diameter and thread size for the threaded portion of the nipple that the beer hose attaches to on the coupler assembly? Also, is that part not replaceable? I didn't see it listed as a replacement part.

It's nowhere near that large...the washer is a 13/16-inch outside diameter. Here's a link to the exact adapter you need...MM doesn't sell it, and they may not allow this link, but here goes: http://www.***************.com/draft...t/FN-013.shtml

It is called a "Pump to Coupler Connector - Long Adapter", $5.22.

Yeah, just as I thought...look at the asterisks in my reply above, and replace them with the words "beverage" and "*******", but make them both one word. Good luck.

lsb188,

Thanks for your help. The part you very subtly directed me to appears to have two female ends. What I need to do is put a spacer in between the existing pump and coupler assembly. That would require one female end and one male end. Any ideas?
