IC hose fittings?

Since I'm going to do some custom work on my IC install, WHERE do you find those barbed hose fittings? 90* 3/4 to 3/4 elbows, 1" to 3/4" reducer...etc. I couldn't find any at Lowes.

Also, those using clear hose, are you using that reinforced stuff from Home Depot that is rated at 150 psi @ 72*F? What is the real temp rating for that stuff?
 


i think zzp sells the barb fitting kits. if you have grainger in your area they prob have all the stuff you need.
 
I looked at copper elbows, but the 1/2 was too small and the 3/4 too large. They didn't have and of the brass barbed 3/4.

I went to Ace (my ace in the hole when it comes to fasteners) and found the 90* PVC fittings. What I didn't realize was the 3/4 fittings are only 1/2 ID. a copper fitting would be much less restrictive. Although the ends on the IC core is only about 1/2.

Thanks for the ZZP and Grainger tips as well.
