Where would I find brass rods for my visable pump? They are 30" long and I would need 10 of them. Thanks

Do a Google search for Brass Rods in your area. Cut & thread your own & save on postage.
Consider having steel rods Brass Plated instead of using solid brass & having them polished & Clear Coated. 1 nick in clear & they will have to be stripped & re-polished/plated AGAIN. Over time they will tarnish even w/ clear coating.

Disposing of waste products is a major factor of smaller companies quitting. Major companies that require the plating are having it done overseas where regulations are more lax or non existence.
