Hookah Port question

[herman]

I don't have any more of them and at least for now have stopped making tools. No extra time these days.....but I may retire in the not too distant future and need something to do again.

The threads on the port are 9/16-18

So, would something like this work? I cannot find the exact one you posted about.

With that one, you would need a 1/4 NPT male to 3/8-24 adapter. The one AD has is Oxygen B to Oxygen B, and then half of this: DGX Adapter: Turns LP Reg Hose into BC Inflator Hose (it separates into 2 pieces, a 9/16 male to 3/18-24 female adapter and a 3/8 male to LP quick disconnect).
Here's a 1/4 NPT male to 3/8 female adapter that should work with the fitting you posted: OmniSwivel Adapter: 1/4-Inch NPT Male = 3/8-Inch F

Respectfully,

James

No tape needed on the adapters I posted.
This is the fitting from the welding store. This is the type: Western Enterprises M24-25 10231

This is the fitting Herman made for me.

I tried searching on the Western Enterprises website using the model type you listed for that fitting, and I can't seem to find one like it.

Since you used to make adapters for the hookah port, would a fitting like this fit the port since the threads are 9/16"?

Thanks for your assistance.

I wish that I could be more help but I too couldn't find that fitting again.

Thanks for looking. If I ever get this regulator working, I guess I may just have to use the DGX splitter and teflon tape. I guess I am late to the double hose party after these parts and tools were still easily sourced.

That's the fitting for a second stage, different inside from the O2 b fitting that the hookah port uses. If you only need one hose, you can do O2 B fitting with a barb, cut the 1st stage end off an LP hose and have it crimped onto the B fitting.

Or even use it to make a short pigtail LP hose, then a 9//16 male adapter: OmniSwivel Union: 9/16-inch M = 9/16-inch M to attach it to a splitter. Would look a little different, but should work.
Last option is to see if a machinist local to you would make an adapter for you.

Best,

James

What about the other adaptor between M24-25 and the hose

That is made to connect an old SPG HP hose to a new HP port so 3/8" female 9/16"male, I think. Good catch Happy I'd forgotten about that fitting. It can also be used to attach a LP hose to a HP port...for a microsecond anyway.

I noticed that link is to a 2018 listing.
