Compression Fittings vs Straight Barbs?

[Brodholm]

Barbs and no clamps! IMHO.

What barbs do you use and what tubing. I think ill need clamps with my tygon R3603 7/16in. ID 11/16in tubing. People say that its safer. But when they get on a barb, they are a pain in the ass to remove!

only one the stuff i use and like.

The clamps are nice tho, i need to pick up more, and if you try them, you'll see why i say there nice.



No, those wont fit, infact that tubing wont fit any compression i can think of.

and yes those are the clamps. They have 2 sizes for 1/2ID, so you need to match clamps with tubing as well.

Good lord 11/16 outer wall eliminates those koolance clamps as well, your only hope is worm drive clamps my friend.

Yeah, I thought so...

But I already have the "fat boys" and ill think I stick with them!

Maybe the next build

1/2" BP barbs with 3/8" ID TFC tubing. You will not need clamps and you will have a clean look.
