You can stretch 3/8 ID tubing over the 1/2 in Y connectors. Just put the tubing in hot water and slip it on. Less restriction that way too.

Before I decided to go 1/2" ID all the way, I needed a 1/2 to 3/8 y-fitting, but there was none to be found. I searched for days, but there is no y-fitting that reduces. I agree that the best way is stretching over a 1/2 fitting.
I was messing around with some leftover Tygon 3/4" ID tubing I have, and it seems to be able to stretch over 1/2 no problem. If you're getting rips I guess you can use a reducer, but that'll provide more resistance as I'm sure you know.

ok thats my alternative solution. YOu know thos 3/8"ID tubing has thin wall and stretch like that can "possibly" tear the tubing off overtime.
