Thread: Water pump on Ebay

I bought one of those, they ae useless. You need a self priming pump.

OK, so it looks like it's a loser then.

For what purpose do you need the waterpump

If you haven't bought it yet you could get the 2.2kw model as it has ER 20 spindle and is almost the same physical size just 40mm longer

As my steppers run on 24v I got one of these:
DC40 2470 Brushless Motor DC 24V 1A Magnetic Drive Water Pump 172GPH 7 0M 26 4W | eBay

Dead quiet sitting in the bottom of my bucket of antifreeze. Unlike the diaphragm pumps, it allows the water to drain out of the tubes when turned off. Not sure this is good or bad, but seeing the clear tubes fill when you start a cut is reassurance that the pump is working.
