I spent some time looking on the swagelok site and they have some amazing stuff. Too bad I don't have $40 for a fitting or 700 for a valve, even if they will work at 2000PSI @ 130C.

Where can I get some reasonably priced stuff? My local hardware store has some nice compression fittings, but they are mostly smaller stuff. They don't carry 5/8OD inserts at all, which kind of makes using tubes impossible.

Thanks,
Mike
