Has anyone seen or used these before? I needed to finish off the ends of my brass water supply lines as I did not want to just "stick" fuel tubing on the end. I was lookig for brass nipples when I ran across these. They fit perfectly inside the brass fuel tubing and give you barb to hold your water line on. They will just solder on to the end of the tube.

Go to Menards, Home Depot or your local hardware store and buy a bag of the 1/8 compression fitting inserts and JB weld them to the tubing.

Much cheaper and no sharp barbs to cut into the fuel line.
 
If ya cant find them, you can use the barbs that are on the clunks....... i figure everyone has clunks from there sullivan tanks just laying around....cut the barb off the clunk and solder on :)

I've been using the Dubro solder on barbs for years and never had a barb cut into the tubing. The key is to put your zip tie behind the barb not on it. What size do you need David, 1/8"??
