Does anyone know where I can source one of the below for my barrow? They're spacers that keep the wheel in a central position and I've lost one which results in the wheel constantly rubbing the frame!
Unfortunately I've no idea what make/model it is as I bought it second hand... looks very similar to a CarpPorter mk4s that's currently in the classifieds. Massive great wheel on it.
The whole thing is a bit knackered but after seeing the price of new ones I'll do anything to avoid paying £150+ for a wheelbarrow.

I was going to suggest a Plumbing merchant type shop. take it in i bet they will have pipe you can cut. I had a similar problem but didn't need such a big spacer so used a few washers.

Grab a vernier measure the diameter of the wheel spindle and get an appropriate sized metal pipe cut to a better size than you have and jobs a goodn

I bought a puncture proof wheel as I'd done the same with mine. Came with plastic bushes and spacers

Had the same problem, i sleeved copper pipe (15mm) over both ends of my axle to keep it central when i had to change to a different wheel.
