Default Sandblaster parts

Does anyone know where I can buy replacement parts for a sandblaster? I have a cheap foreign sand blaster, most of the parts such as the tank and inlet piping is decent quality, but the spray hose and nozzle are junk. For example, after using 200# of sand, I have went through 3 of their valves that control the outflow (which is just a cheap ball valve). The sand has also destroyed the nozzle, which I assume is porcelin. Also the outlet hose is starting to swell up and crack, I am scared it is going to burst.

My question is, where can I buy GOOD QUALITY replacement parts? I need the dischage hose, nozzle, valve, etc. What kind of material is this equipment made of so that the sand does not eat away at it? Thanks in advance.

wear is nature of the beast with a blaster. Replacement parts are part of buying a quality unit. I got mine through Summit, its a Clarke, and they have replacement parts for them, you could try and see if they fit. The one I got came with 3 extra tips, its worth a shot, just look around you will find something.

the one I use is home made out of hose and a valve similar to a gas in a hose made of metal and the tip is metal pipe with the end squashed kinda hard to explain with out look directly at it even though ive used it numerous times before
