I realized my CO2 manifold already has flare fittings, so I'm making the switch to EVABarrier.
However, the manifold input is a 5/16" barb, as is the output barb on the reg.
What's the best way to get DuoTight fittings in these spots? Can I just unscrew the barbs and replace them with this? Somehow the non-flare side doesn't look quite right though.
Same thing without check valve appears to be here: Brass Flare Fitting - 1/4 in. Flare x 1/4 in. MPT | MoreBeer
And, if I got an adapter that did not come with sealant, what should I use? I see regulators assembled with both Teflon tape and the dried up liquid sealant.
