I think the answer is yes. Earliest reference I can see is 1997, but can't access the link in BYO.
But this link has the same tech.

I love my Angram! I looked at the DIY but for all the effort go with the real deal. UKBay prices are incredible but US shipping almost doubles cost. I’d love to have a double. The poor man’s regulator (propane) is all that’s needed. I naturally carbonate with 1.5 oz dextrose. I bought another that needed TLC for fun and a portable option.

I fancy a simple and highly portable jobby.
Wooden wine box.
Containing 2x 5l bag in box and the pump.
In use: box standing on end, pump attached ready to serve. Micro bar.

Go for it. With room to throw a few ice packs in to keep the cellar temps.

Does anyone know if there is a duotight or JG fitting to connect 8mm push fit hose to 5/8 male?

@RoomWithABrew I need a bit of gas hose with a 5/8 male thread on the end

Nearly I was hoping to get threaded bit on the push fit?

If this is to fit a sparkler, I think that a 5/8 shank on a beer tap is BSP (14 TPI) and if the reference I previously posted is correct the sparkler is 5/8 26 TPI. Don't think you'll get a Duotight or JG fitting at this pitch.... happy to be proved wrong though!
I wonder if you could do something with the extension that RLBS sell and some epoxy?

Gas hose? 5/8 inch male (thread, what thread)? 8mm pushfit?
This is adding up to something potentially very scary. No wonder @RoomWithABrew asked "Why?".
Ah, @MCRBrew has a less pessimistic idea of what's being attempted! Still (a person like me has undying pessimism) there's no mention of gas in his reply. @MashBag; explain.

8mm hose fits beautifully into a party tap.
Add to that a sparkler and all I need to do is estimate the pressure excerted by a hand pump....

Then don't mention "gas hose"! Your focus does jump about a bit and we could imagine some "alternative" horrific scenarios from what you were asking.
