No luck searching.
So can anyone tell me the O-ring sizes for EK and D-tech high flow barbs?
Cheers

Petra knows the sizes. he psoted them up here somewhere... ahh yes. I believe it was in the Fuzion thread that nikhsub1 created recently about bowing it.

Hmm... Sounds like a job for my spiffy new Mitutoyo digital calipers. :)
Little did I realize how hard it would be to measure all of these damn o-rings (too squishy/tacky). The first measurement given is, well, what I measured and the second is what I'm guessing they're specced. as (assuming that their thickness spec. is metric).
EK 1/4" BSPP fitting (older version with larger collar/flange): 2.50mm (2.5mm)
EK 1/4" BSPP fitting (current version with smaller collar/flange): 2.43mm (2.4mm)
Swiftech nickel plated brass 1/4" BSPP fitting: 2.62mm (2.6mm)
Danger Den 1/4" BSPP "high-flow" fitting (older version w/thick o-ring): 2.55mm (2.5mm)
Danger Den 1/4" BSPP "high-flow" fitting (current version w/thin o-ring): 1.80mm (1.8mm)
D-Tek 1/4" BSPP fitting: 2.02mm (2mm)
Swiftech Nylon 1/4" NPSM fitting (Eldon James): 2.59mm (2.6mm)
EK 1/4" BSPP plug: 2.01mm (2mm)
EK thread spacer: 1.53mm (1.5mm)
So, how's that Scott? ;)
BTW, Brian offered to lend me his Sper manometer for pressure drop testing and I think that I'm either gonna take him up on that or buy my own, as I'm realizing that I don't have the precision needed for the FuZion in the lower flowrate range (talking <= 0.1psig @ 0.5GPM).
There you go :)
