![]() I was able to chip one out with a screwdriver and hammer. ![]() Maybe there's a PVC pipe tool for such a thing when smaller pipes are snapped off into bigger ones? And there's nothing left on the outside to grab hold of? I know I have a smaller tool for that happens to my sprinkler system, just wondering if pool professionals have something for this kind of situation in the pools. Which would push in the pipe just fine if I could get the remains of the old one out. The "slip" part is left in the wall (I can feel the end of it with my fingers). The whole section that sticks out - ring, eyeball, threads - snapped off. ![]() It looks very similar to this There are no slits to speak of and I'm pretty sure it's just a insider slip version. No part number or mfr is indicated on the old eyeball. See if you have two grooves in the part of the eyeball that is still attached.Īlso, if there is any part # on the piece you do have, just putting that # into google may reveal info, like a datasheet that shows what it is that you have. You then use pliers or an adjustable wrench to turn the key and remove. It looks like a thick credit card, only smaller and slides into two groves in the eyeball fitting. To remove the inner part, you need a plastic key that is made for that purpose. The eyeball then goes in, followed by an outer ring that screws on to the first piece. One piece has male pipe threads and screws inside the female pipe fitting. Mine, and I'm not sure who makes them either, are made of two seperate parts. You don't say who makes them and there are different types. They're pretty brittle (I was just trying to adjust one when it snapped off), but I can't figure out how to get the remains out so I can put the new ones in. ![]() They are the push in type, but only the outer threads & ring have snapped off. Both of my eyeball returns have broken off. ![]()
