Blue Plastic Elbow (3/8” Male Elbow With 5/16” Hose Barb) – for Pump Head on Shurflo 135 & Aquatec 220 & 250 psi Pumps
Genuine Ashbys replacement elbow. This blue plastic 3/8” male elbow with 5/16” hose barb is used on the pump head outlets of the
Shurflo 135 psi pump
and the
Aquatec 220 / 250 psi diaphragm bypass pumps.
It provides the correct outlet angle and hose connection for Ashbys carpet cleaning machines.
The elbow is secured using the
plastic hose clip
and typically connects to the
standard red pressure hose
used across the Enforcer, Ninja and Sensei ranges.
When to replace this elbow
Pump elbows can become cracked, brittle or damaged over time due to heat, vibration or overtightening. They can also break when being removed from an old pump during replacement.
For this reason, we recommend keeping two elbows per pump on hand — especially when installing a new
Shurflo 135 psi pump
or
Aquatec 220 / 250 psi pump.
Having spares ensures the installation goes smoothly and avoids downtime if an elbow cracks during removal.
What this elbow does
This fitting provides a secure 5/16” hose barb connection for the solution hose, while the 3/8” male thread screws directly into the pump head. It forms part of the pump outlet assembly and ensures a leak‑free, correctly angled connection to your machine’s plumbing.
