    Right,

    Ive got a 10mm L20 pump, and 10mm 120.1 Rad.

    Ive bought a cpu block off a mate but its 1/2''.

    I want to convert the block so it will accept 10mm tubing, and not 1/2''.

    However i am unsure of which fittings to buy! :(

    Can anyone here link me to a website as to where i can buy them from?

    thanks,
    C_D

    I'd just buy a new block top, is it the standard one or the antarctica you're using?

    is that 1/4'' = 10mm barbs?

    Or you saying:

    1/4 BSP > 10mm ?

    :)

    edit:
    these?
    or this

    If not can you point me to a website in the UK. Cheers.

    These ;)

    1/4" refers to the thread pitch

    10mm is the OD (outside diameter) of the tube

    Umm, not all blocks use a 1/4" thread. And on top of that, there's 1/4BSPP (G1/4) and 1/4NPT. It could also be 9/16-18. What block is it?

    Its an asetek. No worries the seller managed to find the original 10mm barbs that he took off. :)
