Where to find small Plumbing Fittings

[Tswifty]

Anyone know where I can find small size plumbing fittings?

I need:

1/2" x 1/4" (slip x thread) bushing

1/2" x 1/4" (slip x slip) bushing

1/4" threaded bulkhead

1/4" threaded hose barb

Home Depot and Lowes doesn't carry any 1/4" stuff... 1/2" is the smallest they go.

Home depot, they have a wall back by the PEX pipe that has tons of small stuff.... ask one of the plumbing guys they will show you

there is also a place called Trumbull industries up here in akron, its a plumbing supply company

They have small ice machine fittings, and stuff similiar to the John Guest fittings, but I need adapters for 1/2" the PVC to feed into these... which they do not have (I was at both this morning).

I'll have to give that place you listed a call.

TJ Savko has the 2 bushings that we need, but I can't find the the bulkhead or hose barb.

I know savko has them, I was just hoping to find them today.

If you are looking for hose barb to thread adapters the hardware store right by mu hose has a good selection. Not sure on there sunday hours but i could check if you want. Plus if you drive another 15 mins you could be at Salty Critters place!

Ace hardware, tractor supply company or your local hardware store.

I checked the hardware store closes on sunday at 2pm. Its called Sun Hardware on Lake Rd. in Sheffield Lake. On a side note if you are into diecast model cars you will spend at least an hour looking at the collection they have on display.

Thanks guys... I was able to get a little closer to the end goal, but ended up short a 1/2" x 1/4" (slip x slip) bushing... a.ka. the fitting I purchased at Savko on Friday, but managed to glue in the wrong end. :rolleye1:

Was able to find some of the smaller stuff at ACE in Jackson. They didn't have much of a plumbing section at all, but luckily they stocked a few smaller fittings.
