Used Hoses For Sale

[bgadow]

Hello gang!
I brought home the used hoses that my friend had in storage at the TV/appliance shop. No, these aren't mint condition-but maybe somebody can use some of them? I took closeups of the ends but won't post them unless needed. I personally don't know what any of these fit.

First up: on the left, has metal ends, both the same. Gray/white in color. Average condition, biggest trouble is it is really stuck in this shape! I bet some of you know how to reshape these...

On the right, both ends are rubber and the same, black/red, poor to fair condition, with some fraying. One spot is through the cloth, down to the inner liner.

Second set

On the left, all plastic with a metal nozzle

On the right, all plastic, one end is missing, very dirty. It is in solid condtion, the good end is metal with faded/rusty green paint.

Third set

On the left, plastic with metal nozzle, electric, the plastic is sticky (from being in the heat?) Would need some sort of cleaning

On the right, metal ends (have rust) greenish and white, good condition overall

The left one of the third set is for a Eureka canister.....

equipped with a power nozzle. The machine end is not bent, so this can only fit a Eureka with the suction inlet facing directly out the front of the unit, not the top. I can spot these a kilometre away!

I knew it was similiar to my Hoover Spirit...but different! I'm not well versed enough to know some of the Hoover/Eureka differences.

Hey guys! The second set of hoses is another Eureka canister on the left, and I believe a Hoover Aerodyne or Holiday on the right. Also, the hose on the right in the last set is a good old Electrolux. Later, Trg

New upright attachment sets

These are new in the box; the foam on the part that attaches to the underside of the vacuum has lost its bounce; otherwise they look to be in very good condition.

Inside the box

Everything you could need!

Eureka?

No manufacturer name on this one...

A look inside

This one was unopened when I got it

 

[eurekaprince]

I have a set of Eureka upright attachments just like the one

Can anyone recommend a good way to replace the foam weatherstripping around the perimeter of the large adapter? The foam strips provided by Eureka never lasted and eventually disintegrate. I tried crazy-gluing new foam weatherstripping, but I could not seem to get it to round the corners of the adapter fully - I had to use 4 separate strips which still seem to leave a gap for suction to leak out.

Any ideas? Is there a rubber ribbing that would work better?

Have you tried creating a bead of RTV silicone or Butyl Rubber?

Thanks, I'll try that!
