Does anyone know where I can get something like this from?

I want to go from the silicone tube that's sold on here to a 15mm male thread of a ball valve. I deally a swival type as the other end would be fixed to a pump. Failing that a fixed one with cam locks on the other end.

Cheers but I needed the female one to go on to a male threaded pipe

If you buy a socket like this:-

You can then use the more easily available male hosebarb

I have seen those, but at that price I might as well go down the cam lock route giving me a quick disconned too as one fitting be £7 each so £42 for 6 (3.50 socket + 3.50 hose barb) whereas cam locks are about £4 for Part A (x6) and £6 for Part C (x2) £36 and ok they are available cheaper but that's then 2 things I need to fit together and more chance of leaks and as I need 6 one for each ball valve it soon adds up.

Whereas something like that, I would only need two, which as it swivels, can screw/unscrew on/off ball valves with the other end fixed to the pump at the other end.

These guys have got the widest selection that I've seen, only problem is that they don't have SS :| Linky

Personally I wouldn't bother with cam locks at any price, hosebarbs and silicon tube is far better.

How come Rob? I'm 50/50 never used them, I like the idea of quick disconnect between the ball valves and pump as would make it easier rather then having to screw/unscrew. knowing my luck the threads on ball valves will end up cross threading. Also not that it's a major issue for me at this time I can't find the fitting I want in ss so would be crome/brass and not sure on how long these would last leak free, I'd only need to replace them once & I would have spent the same on camlocks having said that I don't know how good cam locks really are just going on what I've read on the boards
