Quick-Connect fittings ?
 
Hi Guys,

I am looking for 1/2" ID Quick-Connect fittings in the UK!?

I have an external radiator and it is differcult to move while it is connected to my system so I need an easy way to connect and disconnect it without loosing fluid from the loop.

Thanks

Don't know a source in the UK, but Omega ships to the US and Canada. As to quick disconnects, get the no leak type (both male and female ends!), it's MUCH easier to disconnect w/O spilling. But, I have found that the no leak fittings are much more restrictive than the standard couplings. I'd suggest looking for "high flow, no leak" quick disconncts. and going up at least one size larger (ie. 3/4"). that's what I had to do.

Thanks guys.

I also found Colder products non-spill quick connects with true 1/2" ID all the way through though they are pricy at £55+ for two fittings!

Though the links given are much cheeper!! :cool: nice one, Cheers
