The Multiquip 49761 Pump Inlet W/A 2" Barb is a genuine OEM component designed for WT5C, WTE5C, and WT5CSG water trailer models. This inlet assembly connects directly to the pump suction side, providing a secure 2" barbed fitting interface that maintains a leak-free water draw under working conditions. As an authentic Multiquip OEM part, the part is manufactured to the same standards as the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a direct, correct-fitting replacement for your water trailer. DHS Equipment stocks this part to help keep your Multiquip water trailer operating at full capacity.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to original Multiquip specifications, ensuring the barb diameter, thread engagement, and inlet geometry match the pump's designed intake parameters exactly.
- 2" Barbed Inlet Interface — The standardized 2" barb fitting seats securely with compatible hose assemblies, delivering a tight, dependable connection at the pump inlet without improvised adapters.
- Broad Water Trailer Fitment — Confirmed fit for WT5C, WTE5C, and WT5CSG Multiquip water trailer models, covering both hydraulic surge brake and electric-actuated drum brake variants in the lineup.
- Sustained Flow Integrity — A properly seated inlet assembly maintains consistent suction and prevents air ingestion that can cause pump cavitation, loss of prime, and uneven water distribution.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — This part installs in the same position as the original inlet assembly, using existing mounting points and hose connections with no additional fabrication required.
The pump inlet assembly serves as the entry point for water drawn into the trailer's centrifugal pump system. It channels water from the supply hose into the pump housing, and the barbed fitting creates a mechanical grip on the hose that resists pull-out pressure during operation. When this component cracks, corrodes, or loses its sealing surface, the pump loses suction efficiency — resulting in poor prime, reduced flow output, or a complete inability to transfer water — making timely replacement essential to maintaining reliable trailer performance.
