Needles for Pump Meteor 8 mm set of 5 (for inflating sports balls, 8mm needle)

Set of 5 Meteor 8 mm pump needles designed for inflating sports balls and small inflatables. These metal needles have a threaded base to fasten securely to standard pump hoses or adapters and are supplied in a compact set for multiple uses. The set provides spare needles for teams, clubs, schools or home use where quick and reliable inflation is required.

Advantages

Metal construction ensures durability and resistance to bending during repeated use. The threaded base provides a secure connection to most hand and electric pumps, reducing air leakage and improving inflation efficiency. Supplied as a set of five, the needles offer immediate replacements and reduce downtime when a needle becomes damaged or lost.

Suitable for

• Inflating footballs, basketballs, volleyballs and other sports balls
• Small inflatable toys and pool accessories
• Sports clubs, school equipment rooms and training sessions
• Home use for leisure equipment and spare replacements

Key specifications

• Needle material: metal
• Connection type: threaded base compatible with standard pump fittings
• Needle diameter: 8 mm (nominal size for application)
• Pack quantity: 5 needles

How to use

Attach a single needle to the pump hose or adapter by screwing the threaded base into place until secure. Insert the needle carefully into the ball valve or inflatable inlet and operate the pump according to the pump's instructions. Avoid applying excessive side force to the needle to prevent bending. After use, unscrew the needle and store the set in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Before inflating, check the valve and needle for damage and ensure the needle is compatible with the pump. For pressure-sensitive balls, use a pressure gauge where available and avoid overinflation. Replace bent or corroded needles to maintain safe and efficient inflation.
