HP-100/120 HIBLOW Rebuild Kits Have HIBLOW Logo on the Diaphragms
If it doesn’t have a logo, it’s a no-go!
The same Chinese company that has been building knock-off HP-60/80 rebuild kits also manufactures a knock-off HP-100/120 kit. Do not fall victim to their army of deceptive sellers on Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, and Walmart. The kits may appear similar, but they are not built to spec, and the components are made from inferior materials. Their diaphragms can be very noisy and may fail within weeks, if not days. Often when they do fail, the safety mechanism isn’t tripped, and the rod tears up the inside of the air pump rendering the pump unusable.
To help authentic kits stand out, HIBLOW HP-100/120 diaphragms now have the HIBLOW logo engrained on the center plate as shown below. The diaphragms are included in both the full rebuild kit (PN: 120PC20012P) and the diaphragm only kit (PN: 120PD20011P).
It is inevitable that at some point in time your HIBLOW linear air pump will stop running. Most often that means that the diaphragms have ruptured, which activates the safety mechanism cutting power to the pump. This ensures that the magnetic rod does not tear up the inside of the pump – making it irreparable.
One of the advantages of choosing HIBLOW is that the pump can be rebuilt 2 times at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new pump. You may notice that there are different rebuild kit options on the market, most notably buying a full rebuild kit or the diaphragms only kit. It is HIBLOW’s strong recommendation to buy the full rebuild kit.
