Default Where to order compression fittings?

I need some tricky ones...

3/8 compression to 3/8 hose barb
5/16 compression to 5/16 hose barb

I've had no luck at any hardware store or local parts supply place, but I KNOW they exist because I have 1, I just need another one. I have no idea where it came from I just found it in the shop.

You're probably going to have to use two fittings screwed together.

Try a John Deere dealer or tractor supply.

Worst case you can get a compression to AN and then AN to pretty much anything else at Jegs or Summit.

Why not just flare the hardline and hook the hose directly to that.

Your local speed shop or even a good parts start should have a local source for Russell or Aero fittings.. Just ask them if they have a catalog to look at and order from.

If not there is always one of the sponsor, Jeg's or SummitRacing. I know most of the vendors do have web sites to view there catalog.

Question, why would you need a compression to barb fitting?.. I would just flare the end a bit then just and use a fuel Injection grade hose clamp on the hose if your just trying to add a barb end to the hose..?

If you have a local Hydraulic hose & gasket shop, they should have it.

If you go the two NPT fittings route, Home Depot probably has them
