I am slowly trying to upgrade my system to stainless, and got a stainless immersion chiller for Christmas. The problem is I would like to setup a re-circulation arm for this chiller but cant seem to find a good source for stainless tubing. I have considered a bulkhead fitting and a 90, but would rather not do that if possible for a variety of reasons. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
 
I just put one together with parts from stainlessbrewing.com. But brewhardware.com should have everything as well. I had a threaded fitting bulkhead at the top of my kettle already.

If you are trying to do one that attaches to the chiller, you might just get some copper. Much easier to bend. Zip tie it to the chiller and be done with it.
