Finding a 5/16" Flare Plug

[bastardbrew]

Hey all,

I recently got myself a Perlick dual regulator setup on craigslist, the left side of which has a pull-ring type pressure relief valve. Unfortunately, it requires a 5/16" flare plug that was, for some reason, not included by the seller. I have been looking all over this.

Home Depot? Sorry.
More Beer? Nope.
Northern Brewer? Fat chance.
Midwest Supplies? Outa' luck pal.
Amazon.com? Only if I want to pay 11 dollars to ship an 89¢ piece of brass. Thanks, but no.


Tell me, fellas: where the hell do I find one of these? Preferably a place that won't charge me 10 times the cost of this item to ship it.

Ace is the place.

If Ace doesn't have it, surely a welding supply shop would. Or industrial plumbing supply.

Flare plug, or cap. Here's a stainless plug ... ~$10 free ship ... http://www.drillspot.com/products/386378/Approved_Vendor_2408-05SS_Male_Plug

Not quite $0.89 ... but stainless.
