90 degree rubber

[Sweigh]

I have been looking high and low all over the city the last few days trying to find a place that stocks or sells 2" 90 degree rubber elbows.. They look nearly identical to a basic ABS elbow, only they are made of rubber to flex over a connection and then clamped down with a hose clamp. They are available all over the place in the States but I can't find them anywhere here in Edmonton!

I am hoping someone here can come to my rescue before I break down and improvise the snorkel setup I had planned. Maybe a plumber or some other tradesman on here has access to supplier catalogs and can check?

so far I have checked:

Rona
Home Depot
Home Hardware
Totem
Best Plumbing
Bartle and Gibson
Amre
Green Line
Princess Auto

... no luck.

Can you be a bit more specific on which store to try?

If I don't find them in the next 24 hours, I'll be using some straight rubber couplings and ABS elbows to make it work.. Just means more pieces which means bigger risk of developing a leak as time passes.

Won't a Rad hose 90 work?

Many radiator hoses have 90* bends in them...... Any automotive store should be able to help you...... Did you try napa, or bumper to bumper?? You'll have to cut the hose to desired length, but any of them should have a hose for ya............

PM sent Gforce.

Canadian Tire doesn't list them on their site but I suppose I could check. Remember, I'm looking for a RUBBER 90 degree elbow with a 2 inch diameter.. some places will carry a rubber elbow but never bigger than an inch and a quarter.

Try Goodall Rubber in E-town, 780-437-1260. They have EVERYTHING for hoses, fittings, couplings, etc...

Frontier Plumbing and heating was able to supply me with the elbow. Thanks to GForce for pointing me in the right direction! There will be a cold one waiting for you at the campout!
