Part number 710-081 is a siphon tube adapter designed to connect the siphon tube to the pump inlet on compatible Impact, Epic, Airless Sprayer, and Advantage equipment. This adapter provides a secure, leak‑free connection that allows material to be drawn from the container into the pump, ensuring consistent fluid flow and reliable spraying performance. Replacing a cracked, worn, or missing siphon tube adapter restores proper suction, prevents air ingestion, and maintains system efficiency.

The 710-081 Siphon Tube Adapter is a key component in the fluid delivery system of compatible sprayers. It connects the siphon tube—the flexible hose that draws material from the container—to the pump inlet. This adapter ensures a tight seal, preventing air from entering the system and maintaining the vacuum needed for consistent material pickup.
Over time, the adapter can become cracked, brittle, or its sealing surfaces can degrade due to exposure to solvents and chemicals. A damaged adapter may allow air to be drawn into the pump, causing erratic pressure, reduced output, or cavitation. Replacing the siphon tube adapter restores a reliable, leak‑free connection, ensuring the pump receives a steady supply of material and operates at peak efficiency.
| Fluid connection | Securely connects the siphon tube to the pump inlet |
|---|---|
| Air seal | Prevents air ingestion that can cause priming loss or cavitation |
| Flow continuity | Ensures uninterrupted material supply to the pump |
| Cracks / damage | Visible cracks, splits, or brittleness |
|---|---|
| Air leaks | Air bubbles in the fluid or difficulty priming |
| Loose fit | Siphon tube does not stay securely attached |
| During maintenance | Replace when replacing siphon tube or servicing pump inlet |

Siphon tube adapter issues may involve associated components. When servicing the adapter, these parts are commonly inspected or replaced at the same time.
Inspect the siphon tube for cracks or stiffness; replace if worn.
Clean or replace the inlet filter to ensure unrestricted flow.
Check the pump inlet threads or port for damage.
