Default Where can I get hose barbs?

Hey everyone...

Where can I get hose barbs (1/2 barb 1/4NPT) in Canada or the States? I've been searching around in Canada, but I couldn't find any...

I can get some friends to send me some if I tell them where they can get some...

Thanks!

home depot does, unless canadas home depot is retarted. but yes, ask for the plumbing section, a large variety of tubing connectors are available there. Lowes also carries the same selection of tubing connectors.

Non of the home depots or Lows I been to have 1/4"NPT 1/2" barbs. The biggest 1/4" NPT they carry is 3/8". I found a place locally that sells them for $.57 US each and plastic for $.49each. Look in your phone book under hosing and or plumbing. The place I get them is called House of Hose.

How many do you need?

Where in Canada are your friends. If it's Vancouver/Richmond then Steveston Marine Hardware is the place.

Edit: (note to self) Read post carefully, 1/4X1/2 barb I'm not sure about. I would need to check. Sorry

Edit #2: Got a couple of nylon 1/4MIPX1/2 Barb at the above mentioned store $1.79ea.
