Re: [APD] Swagelok B-SS4-A

I purchased a Swagelok metering valve on ebay and learned a lesson:  it  
may well cost more than the valve just to get the fittings needed to  
hook it up!  Mine has tiny little hose barbs, like for 2 mm ID tubing,  
and I still can't find a barb fitting with pipe threads on the other  
end that will match it.  I did find some tubing small enough, but just  
barely, by shopping at a hobby shop for model airplane fuel tubing.   
The smallest barb fitting I have found is for 1/8 inch ID tubing, which  
is too big.  And, I haven't found a Swagelok barb fitting to substitute  
for the 2 mm barb on the valve.  The Swagelok catalog doesn't seem to  
have barbs that use the swagelok nut to attach them.  But, I am still  
looking.
