I just bought a load of homebrew gear from a guy getting out of the hobby, and one gem was this blue motor and gear thingy- a Little Giant LG-100 with motor and drivetrain. Here's a link to the pump on google, I will try to get some photos of the internals of the drive later. It's drive has two bearings that push on the tubing- rated for a little over 1 GPM.

Does anyone know where I could purchase just a peristaltic pump (can be without the motor) that puts out the production of the silverbrew's design.
I am wanting to use this size pump to pull my wort through my CFC and into my fermentation tank.
I am fairly handy and could build / assemble the rest, but I don't have a machine shop to build the pump itself.
We brew 40 gallon batches once a month, so the faster the pump the better, to help speed up the process.
And like most home brewers I would like to do this as affordable as possible.

I got three of them on ebay for a steal. They are daisy chained together and turn from one driveshaft. They use 3/8" ID silicone tubing and have a max flow of about 2 gallons/minute at 650 rpm which is the max rated rpm.

I plan to use one or two of them for most tasks (synchronized HERMS recirculating, etc..) and all three simultaneously to really pump the bigger volumes of liquid.
