    Default Need a stainless j-bend tube for my filter press hose

    Title basically says it all. I have a Smoky Lake filter press and I'd like to put a stainless steel tube on the end that's bent like a J so I can hook it onto my bottler and not worry about the hose popping out (don't ask why I'm worried about this....). Where can I get one? I've tried searching but I am probably not using the correct terminology.

    I know CDL has them. Would guess anyone who sells filter press would stock them. mine came with filter press but bought another from CDL
