Party tap barb hose to push fit

[soupdragon]

Hi all

Seems one of my beer lines has sprung a leak. I've tracked it down to the final piece of hose that pushes on to the barb of the party tap. I'm not sure without getting some daylight on it tomorrow what diameter the small length of pipe is that goes from the barb to the push fit.
Does anyone know off the top of their head what size it is? It's not long enough to cut the offending piece off by the way

Cheers Tom

If its standard beer line then it will be 3/8"

Thanks Carl. And guess which bit of spare line I dumped ages ago? I've got an old Dalex tap in a box, don't know why I switched to party taps really. I'll give it a thorough clean and see if I've still got all the old reducers. I should have seeing as I kept the tap itself

Cheers Tom

Hi Tom - can you just chop the cracked bit of line off and re-use what's left?
Heat the tubing up with a hairdryer to make it stretch over the barb more easily

I would if it was long enough. It's only 3cm long so there's absolutely nothing spare to trim I've just dug out my old Dalex tap and given it a good soak in VWP. I'll set that up for this evening and see how I get along with it

Cheers Tom

Happy to post you a foot of 3/8” tubing! Just PM me your address :-)
