8x10mm tubes. What does that translate to in fittings?

1/4 or 3/4 ?

25.4mm = 1inch

very acurate conversation for being 3 sig figs also, I havn't been able to find anything more accurate.

I just plug that jazz into my calculator...thats probably accurate to like 10 or 12 sig figs...although it really dosen't matter past one or two...

My mistake. What I ment to say is the diameter of the TUBE is 8x10mm.

What fittings should be used?

3/8" or 1/4"?

I still don't get it. Are you saying that the inside diameter is 8mm and the outside diameter is 10mm or what? If that's the case then there's no real fitting that would work for you. 1/4 is too small and 3/8 is too big!
