Help finding a fitting

[Jaff.]

Been around the local pipe places with no joy so looking to find one online if anyone knows of any good places?

Its a basic 90 degree bend with a male m14 thread on one end and a female m14 thread on the other.

what is this bit of pipe for?

thinking you could try a hydrallic specialist if your on about what im thinking

Been to pirtek, g-tek and every other local tek looking for this bit but no joy.

Its for my oil pressure switch, it wont fit on the back of the block now because of my t-piece for the turbo feed so I need a 90 bend (may get away with a 45) so I can screw the pressure switch in

i'll ring my dad up now, who works at BAE systems and ask where they get all there parts from

 

[Jaff.]

Nice one!

dad said, some of the parts they use are imported from the yanks ( cant remember the name for them ) but he did say, when he had his old boosted mk2 XR2, he used a company called www.burnettandhillman.co.uk/

Thanks mate

Give these a ring:-

We use these in work all the time, they just make the hoses up for us. We collect so im not sure on the postage side of things.

Could you not manufacture your own mate out of some 15mm pipe, 13mm inner diameter? Just run a tap through it and then tap the other side. Depending on the pitch too I guess

Cheers jay, they're not too far away so could always pick it up. Will try them later.

Chapster, it's not something I fancy doing tbh. Finding pipe, then the right size tap then an adapter, it's likely to cost a lot more than this fitting... If I can find it lol

call mocal (think automotive)

 

[Jay.S]

I use the Deeside branch, just make sure they understand fully what you want. I usually just take the old pipe in with me.

They can also do a pressure test on the hose for you if you need them to.

Didn't think of mocal!

Jay it's a 1 off fitting I need not a pipe or anything it's just finding one lol
