Coupler pipe/tube on a wagon

[ridenby]

Thinking replacing coupler tube/pipe on a wagon. It measures 2.36" , DOM close is 2 3/8" , pipe is 2" and 2 1?2" . Help??

SCH 40 is labeled as ID so 2" has on OD of 2.375. I'd be shocked if it wasn't that.

What are you using to measure the current pipe?

I used my harbor freight caliper.

What's the wagon? You mean like a hay wagon? Guessing not a kiddie Radio Flyer?

2.36" is right around 60mm. It Urapeein?

 

[ridenby]

Hay wagon 16' or so.

Are you measuring the OD of the existing pipe, or the ID of the tube it slides into?
If it's a US made one, I would bet it's made to fit 2" pipe (which is actually 2" ID).

OD of existing, and bgidan pointed out sch 40 is what is needed.

Schd 80 2" will be the same od, but much thicker if you think you need it.

If iirc in 2" , 40 will be roughly 3/16" and 80 will be roughly 1/4"

There is also schd 100, but it's not very common.

If it's the one between the axles, schedule 40 should be fine.

It is and sch 40 seems to be what it is. Looked like they used a forks to lift wagon off trailer or another wagon.

That would do it, they aren't meant to handle that.

Picked up 21' stick of 2" sch40 pipe. Fit perfect. My photography is poor.
