Inlet thread size on 210EXT?

[RichardH]

I'm putting the cart before the horse here, killing time waiting for the next batch of 210EXTs to arrive...

I know the unit comes with a pair of quick disconnect fittings, but what's the thread size on the back of the machine where the QD fitting is attached? I recall it's male - is it NPT (1/8" or 1/4"?) or one of the odd flat threads used for gas?

I'm cooking up an idea, and if it's an odd thread I'd like to get the right fitting on order.

Thanks,
Richard

You should probably wait and see what you get. From what others have said there has already been at least one change to the input. Quite a bit of Chinese plumbing is BSP (British Standard Pipe) or metric, so be sure to check carefully. It can also be NPS with a sealing washer. Last I hear the input is now a hose barb. That makes it somewhat universal for worldwide distribution.
This place was noted to have many of the fittings that Everlast has used.

I know, I know. But I'm running out of things to keep me occupied while I wait for the welder to arrive.

The first one had a small quick disconnect pair - male threaded onto the machine, and female had a 3/16" barb. That's a pretty universal setup.

Cheers,
Richard
