Thread: quick disconnect fittings for argon

Cejn air line fittings may be suitable, there are many different types but you will pay much more for them compared to low quality brands such as nitto

thanks China - any idea of local suppliers?
I also found this great catalogue from eaton, but again - not sure where I can get them in Australia. http://www.eaton.com/ecm/groups/publ...pct_284126.pdf

They are not hard to find in SA I get mine from a company called Charmans CHARMANS I think Gasweld have them or will get them, Cejn head office is at 20-22 Foundry rd Seven hills NSW ph 9838 0225 I have no concept if that is close to you or not but give the a call and I'm sure they will enlighen you as to who stocks them in your area

Nitto Australia Pty Ltd - Industrial Tools

Seen these?

Brenton21 I had no idea nitto made anything but air fittings. I've been asking around heaps locally to see if any of the usual suspects have anything close to what I want but still no luck.
China - thanks for the contacts. I think that's my next port of call, but I'm not holding out for a local stockist - I'm near Byron Bay in northern nsw (probably better described as far south queensland) and it seems that finding any of the real cool shed gear requires a drive up to the gold coast.
Cheers

May I suggest a quick disconnect bayonet fitting which is AGA approved, it is made for natural gas BBQs & heaters.
It will shut off the gas supply when the adaptor is removed from the socket and is available with hoses permanetly connected on the adaptor.
It will be available at major plumbing suppliers eg tradelink/reece or specialist BBQ stores.


Cheers Andy
