Default need a source for good hose barbs

Home Depot only has the basics, like a 1/2" barb with a huge 1/2" pipe thread, so..

I'm looking for a good(& cheap) source for high quality hose barbs. Preferably a shorter thread length and small overall diameter. (like a 1/2" barb with 3/8" threads & a 1/2" "nut" or so)

I've been looking around, but if anyone knows a good source, it would save me some time.


Have a few solid designs on paper, all aimed at low flow restriction, max surface area, and good turbulence. The possibilities are starting to open up since I just:
