Looking for instant tube fittings

decodeddiesel · 10-11-2002, 02:53 PM

Well I've been searching for a while now without success for 14mm/5/8" x 1/4" NPT push to connect fittings. Does anyone know of a distrobuter that would carry something like this? I looked at a number of pneumatics distrobutors as well as Mcmaster and haven't found them yet. Prefferably I am looking for Polybutylene or Glass Filled fittings. If anyone has seen them anywhere please let me know, many thanks.

I can get these fittings

but they are not cheap...
and unfortunately not even close to the size you want....

though they are more than big enough for the way my blocks work....

Cool, thanks fot the reply #rotor, thats sweet as I am seriously thinking of getting the some blocks from you in the future for an upcomming project. It looks like I can get some 1/2" OD fittings fairly easilly (though a tad pricey) from McMaster. Perhaps 1/2" OD x 3/8" NPT for the CPU block and 3/8" OD x 1/4" NPT for GPU, Northbridge, PSU and HDD blocks.....don't mind me just thinking aloud (sorta).

well the 1/2"od's if you can get them in 1/4npt would be awesome.

the main advantage of these fittings, is the much smoother flow-path, compared to that of the normal barbs style fittings.

those in the picture is 3/8 od and I got them for the U1 project i'm doing... reason for them is, that there is not much space for a full length barb to fit in.

I found them on http://www.mcmaster.com under "instant tube fittings" page, they have glass filled nylon, Polybutylene, Polypropylene, Stainless Steel, and various other types. I don't know if they'll ship to Canada but it's worth a look.

Ive managed to find them with all pneumatic resellers here in Montreal... unfortunately they are usually available for maximum 1/2 OD tubing only... !#!#1
