ARB 170201 fitting.

Anyone have a recommendation on an alternative for ARB fitting in he solenoids? Seems every so often I have one let lose hey average about $18 each with shipping. I looked into a standard compression fitting might try that route. Any alternative fixes please shout.

Optional: but would have to drill an tap the solenoid that is doable, and this should be fail safe.

So what threads does the fitting have?

Can you not just swap out the fitting at each end of the line for a more-standard (5mm... really??) air line fitting, like 4mm or 6mm?

Leave it to ARB to make a proprietary fitting :ROFLMAO:

Also, it does look like 5mm is available, just not as standard as 4 or 6mm, so the fitting availability is limited.

Grainger has a few options, like this one...

Again, need to know the thread size/type needed as well

Mcmaster-carr has some available as well

Gonna look into that when I get home, the thread size is small but I don’t know right off. I may call ARB tomorrow ask them, for an easy solution I went ahead and ordered the ARB fitting also ordered the one I referenced see what I can make happen. No local places carry any compression fittings this small.

I purchased mine from an online store in the UK since ARB uses BSPT standards. Worked great. I did not pay rush shipping and received them in 5 business days and that is going to through US customs too.

If they are 1/8 bspt I would be inclined to replace them with a 1/8bspt to AN3 fitting and use AN lines to connect them. You’ll probably never have to deal with it again.
