Title: Sight Gauge Fittings
Post by: In The Sand on July 09, 2013, 01:13:35 AM

I'm looking at getting a short run of sight gauge glass to go from my O2 injection, to ball valve, to fermentor.  This (http://www.mcmaster.com/#gauge-glass/=njeovy) is the sight glass I'm looking at.  What fittings do I need to buy to go from the O2 (which is stainless steel, 1/2" FPT) to the sight glass and back to a stainless ball valve?

And I don't wanna spend the $120 on the one they have on their site.

Seems you could use some stainless compression fittings. It might work better with a section of polycarbonate. Compression fittings can be pricey.
