The tubing on the Medela breast pumps is one of the least expensive parts to replace, but there are several different tubes available to fit the various breast pumps. This page shows all the different tubing available from Medela, and which Medela breast pumps that they fit.

Tubing for Medela Pump In Style Breast Pumps. Medela item #8007156. This tubing is used on the Medela Original Pump In Style breast pump, the Medela Pump In Style Traveler breast pump, and the Medela Pump In Style Companion breast pump, but NOT the Pump In Style Advanced. As of July 2006 Medela has discontinued making and selling this tube. It has been replaced by tube #8007212. Tube #8007212 (see below) is exactly the same as #8007156 except that the hard adapter is now colored cream, and made of an improved material. Please order tube #8007212 instead of tube #8007156 The tubes are sold individually, and two tubes are needed to double pump with the Pump In Style breast pumps. They are clear plastic tubes, with one soft end and a clear hard plastic adapter on the other end. The hard adapter end of the tube is plugged into the back of the breastshield connector, and the plain end of the tubing attaches to the breast pump. Old pumps may list the pump tube part number as #8007071. This pump tube is no longer manufactured, and has also been replaced by this tube #8007212. This newer tube has a longer clear hard adapter than #8007071 but will fit snugly into the back of your breastshield connector. It will not push in all the way up to the adapter hub but fits well enough to provide a very good seal. |

Old style tubing for Medela Lactina Breast Pump, and Medela Classic Breast Pump. Medela item #8007062. This tubing is used on the Medela Lactina Plus Breast Pump and the Medela Lactina Select Breast Pump. The tubing is clear plastic with a yellow adapter on one end that can be described as a tulip or Christmas tree shape, and a clear hard adapter on the other end. The yellow adapter fits onto the breast pump, and the clear end attaches to the breastshield connector. The tubes are sold individually. This style tube is no longer contained in the new Lactina kits. The design of the yellow adapter on the end of the tube has been changed so be sure to check whether your tubes have the old or new design.
Some people use this tubing for the Pump In Style Breast Pump. Although it is not designed for that purpose it can be done, but it is a tight fit attaching the yellow adapter to the front of the Pump In Style. If you have Lactina tubes and want to use them on your Pump In Style Breast Pump, cut off the yellow adapters to leave the plain plastic end -- attach this to your Pump In Style -- the diaphragm cap on the front of your pump will last a lot longer that way! |

New style tubing for the Medela Lactina Breast Pump #8007179. This new tube began distribution in November 2003 and is no longer available. Tube #8007213 has now replaced this tube. The new style Lactina tube has one two tone yellow end that is round in shape. The other end has a hard clear adapter. It is not recommended that you try and use this tube with other models of the Pump In Style other than the Advanced model, as it is like to break the diaphragm cap ports. The new Lactina kits all contain this style tube. |

Silicone tube for Medela Pump In Style Advanced Breast Pump #8007180 introduced in 2003. This tube is no longer being made -- it has now been replaced by tube #8007214 (See below) This tube had the same pale yellow adapter on one end as the new style Lactina tube. The only difference between the two tubes is that this one is made of softer silicone, and does not have the usual hard shiny finish of the other Pump In Style and Lactina tubes. The silicone tubes are recommended for the Advanced pumps as they are less likely to break the ports on the face plate. The other end of the tube has a clear hard adapter. It is not recommended that you use this tube with other models of the Pump In Style other than the Advanced model, as it is like to break the diaphragm cap or face plate ports. |
