Compatability with Anchor

  • Hello everybody.


    I have an Anchor 500CP that never worked properly from the beginning.


    It was great for the time it burned properly, but the rubber from the tank valve kept coming unseated.


    I solved that by putting a nick in the edge of its housing, but the top had overheated and the air screw fused, and then the mantle sooted up and broke so I turned it off, but the globe broke on cooldown.


    Now I think I can sort it out and improve it by using some petromax parts.


    I read here already that the thread on the mixing tube is different, but if I use Petromax mixing chamber and nozzle then that is not an issue.


    I would be extremely grateful if anyone can confirm the compatability of the following parts with my Anchor 500 CP:


    Mixing tube.


    Globe.


    Mantle support.


    Pump piston (O-ring).


    EZ pump fitting.


    Needle.


    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • to my knowledge the diameter of the globe/glass of the Anchor is a bit smaller than the one of Petromax.


    There is a dealer of Seanchor Lamps in Germany who offers globes for both types. pls google anchorlampen.de . Links not allowed in this forum.
