Thumbs up I bought them from SteinAir

Stein has a number of fittings and even an alt air switch in case the static ports freeze or get plugged.

Good Luck,

The Watts plastic pushlock fittings from the aviation section at Lowes have worked for me and multiple homebuilts in my area.

I used natural color tubing for static and the red stuff from Stein for pitot. Makes it easy to hook up without swapping lines.

Given the choice, I still prefer nylo seal fittings.

I do use the quick connect if the installation requires something special like the banjo or a union.


I have found the following tube works good in the quick connect fittings and seals very well.
