PA120.3 Barbs?

[Risen]

Which barbs do you guys use for your PA120.3? I ordered some metal ones but they're back-ordered...

THESE (http://www.gammods.com.au/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_3&products_id=4) are good. There is a whole thread about it HERE (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=169896&highlight=thermochill+barbs).

No problem man. Another way people do it is to use a G3/8 to G1/4 reducer and then use normal barbs.

For this route, go to McMaster.com (http://www.mcmaster.com/) and search for 4860K657.

This is probably the better route as it's closer to "home" then GAM and you really lose nothing in the way of flow but gain in fitting flexibility. Mcmaster also switched from UPS to FedEx recently which has me really stoked, as the current UPS driver for my area is a complete d*****bag and would always show up late (prior driver never showed up after 12:00pm) even though he knew when I had to leave for work (3:00pm).

Third option is to look at EK's own barbs : http://ekwaterblocks.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=228

I heard Petra's will stock them shortly but check with them first.

Personnally, I went with the McMaster adapter path and I'm very happy since the smaller inner diameter of G1/4" barbs doesn't matter since the rest of the loop will have the same restriction (think overall, not just 1 place).

at first i really didn't care much for the looks of an EK barb... but closer look, it's actually very nice... and like the D-Tek, it has a grooove to hold your O-Ring in place... neato!:up:

Wow, didn't know EK had a G3/8 barb... nice find!
