Default 90 Degree Compression

I recently purchased this Danger Den Maze4 GPU SLI Kit to hook up my 2 6800GT's.

I am looking for a 1/2 barb replacement with a 90 degree Compression fitting. That is long enough to swivel without hitting the BFG 6800GT SLI Card. Like this 8mm Elbow Compression Fitting only with 1/2" ID (5/8" OD).

Anyone give me a hand. Prefer Stainless steel or anodized black, however, beggars can't be choosers.

Thanks for the help.

System specs:
DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR (BIOS 623-3)
Athlon64 3500+ Winchester
4x512MB PC3200 OCZ EL Plat Rev 2
200GB Seagate Barracuda SATA 150 hdd
250GB Seagate Barracuda SATA 150 hdd
NEC 3520A DVD-RW
2 BFG GeForce 6800GT O/C SLI
PC P&C Turbo-Cool 510 SLI
Audigy II ZS sound card
Windows XP Pro SP 2

Danger Den W/C setup on CPU and Video

Thanks.

I tried to find some similar fittings in the UK a while ago and the biggest available was 1/2" OD.

DD High Flow fittings use a 9/16" thread.

9/16-18 UNF Thread to 1/2" HiFlow barb.

And yep, the compression fittings you're after basically aren't available as far as I know. You'd need to use regular 90degree barbs, then get some Pithon Hoselocks to add to them to make them into compression style fittings.

However, Pi-Thon are notorious for not responding to e-mails. I've been trying to get their products for months with no success.

Ideally for the look you sound to be after you'd want black nylon 90deg hosebarbs with black anodized pithon hoselocks.

Hello Marci. I just purchased some of the Pi-Thon hose locks for 1/2"ID x 3/4"OD hose in black anodised and polished. You also need to use their spanner set. I also picked up a polished aluminum hose separator from the same retailer. Don't know if they ship worldwide or give quantity discounts, but here is their contact info:
