I ordered a return line From fp But, i got the t3 Fitting When i needed a td05 Fitting.
So i had one in the garage. but the Barb size i could fit on it, was not the same as the Fp.
Its a 3/8 barb x 1/4'MIP

Is this a big enough barb for the return line?

This is goin on a DBB 35r feed with inline filter off head.


Need to know ASAP.


thanks in advance!

That line doesn't see much pressure. Coupled with the fact that you are he running off the head, would lead me to say it's fine.

Yea thats fine. Looks very similar to the FP "BLUE" return line. If possible, try to make the opening a little bit bigger to get rid of any worries. I wouldn't though.

EDIT: See what happens when you put pictures in threads. Thats all i look at. I didnt even read that was the FP return tube. . I would still say its good.

Thanks.

Yeah, it's just a drain. It sees no pressure.

There is always some type of pressure, whether its ambient, vacuum, or forced.

With a feed I went with a -3AN and return I went with a -10an. Most people I know use the -10AN
