Good Evening Gents,

Can you please help me search for a G 3/8" - 1/2" barb 90* :confused:

I went to Frozencpu - Sidewinders - Performance-Pcs, and etc.

I need one for my PA 120.2.

Thanks for all the help.


(I searched the forums and could find related) :(

It used to be difficult to just find a 3/8" threaded barb, and I've never seen an elbow. Might try McMaster Carr for something that you can make work.

How to look for it at McMaster? I have tried searching g3/8 (nothing) G-3/8" (nothing) BSPP 3/8" and only see tap and dies?

Any help is as always greatly appreciated. :)

4860K428

As matter of fact, any product starting with 4860K is all BSPP.

Eheim pumps are G 3/8 -and there are many G3/8 adaptors.
Here is one http://www.sharkacomputers.com/eh12ad.html
I'm sure you can find some in nickel color.
$5 and get any 1/4" elbow.

you can check to see if this works.

Thanks RRR..... I will do that - use the reducer and then get a set of the BitsPower...... later.

I just order a set of 6 from Over-clock.UK I just paid - $65 after conversion and shipping to US. But that way I will have them here for Future projects if needed.

Sucks so bad to be rolling along on a project and then BAM - complete stop and find out you dont have something you need. I just cant make the bend I need with tubing (even with smart coils)

Thanks again - Im off to go spend some more on the reducers! :)


***** EDIT - thanks Eddie - just hit reply and bam your post was there!

I will check it out!

You won't find a piece exactly like you want, you must use 2-3 parts to get what you want. My idea was to use the elbow there then use a G3/8" barb with 1/2" on the tubing end. 3R idea is also good with a reducer and 90 degree elbow then a G1/4" barb.

Might as well get that part from sharka, it's cheaper and sharka has reduced shipping
