Innovatek Users!
HighSpeedPC lists threading as 1/4", but I swear mine are 14mm.
Are we expected to strip the female threading or is 1/4" accurate?

Size matters!
Who has the largest fitting/barb on their Innovatek WaterBlock [without stripping the threading]?
 
lol

Please Read Before Ordering: Pipe size is the accepted industry designation, not the actual measured size. To determine pipe size, first use a ruler to measure the outside diameter (OD), as shown at right. Then, round up the measurement to the closest OD listed in the chart and select the corresponding pipe size. For example, if the OD measures 1 3/16", the next highest OD in the chart is 1 3/8", and the corresponding pipe size is 1".

in other words 1/4"npt = 1/2" od or about 14mm;)
 
Earlier today, I found the answer.
Innovatek parts are made with a 1/4"BSP [British Standard Pipe Thread] not the NPTS [National Pipe Thread Standard].
 
I'm currently searching for an answer to the same question.
I'll receive a catalogue from legris.com within the week.
They carry a substantial selection of British Standard Pipe Thread Fittings.
Hopefully, that'll provide resolution.
I’ll keep you posted.
