convert 1/2" to 3/8"?

[koontz946]

im sure there is a way to convert b/t the two, but the 1/2 and 3/8 fall 1 short of the 4 letter/number search minimum :mad:

anyone help me on this?

[DarkDraco]

there are tubing adapters for like 99cents each that does that. i believe i saw it on dtekcustoms or bestbyte.net

[koontz946]

hmm would that be something i could buy at an actual store? if so, what kind?

and what do the 3/8" and 1/2" mean, is it ID or OD?

[Raider84]

its ID. The 3/8 tubing has 1/8 inch think walls making it 5/8 OD. Someone correct me if im wrong.

[koontz946]

ne stores (plumbing, maybe?) that might carry such a wonderful device? :D

Add asterisks (*) to use wild cards in your search: *1/2*

As for the adapter, look for a "reducer" barb in the plumbing section at your local hardware store. I'm pretty sure I've seen one at lowes or home depot somewhere.

yeah it appears as though home depot has a package for <$4.... thanks for that key word :)
