John Guest Fittings

[Bearded Wonder]

Hey everyone I'm in the process of making my own kegerator and have just brought my tap which has come with 12ml beer lines. Can anyone tell me what size John Guest fitting would fit this size beer line????

The fittings are all described in fractions
3/8 ect.
I know it's not 3/8 cos my gas line is that size.

15/32" would be the closest fractional inch, I believe. Not sure that is a common tubing OD for fittings...

12mm is almost a half inch. I hope that's thickwall PVC with 3/16" ID. If so, it doesn't work well with push fit fittings.

Thanks for this, yes it is thick wall PVC. I'll go old school and use hose clamps.

Thanks for this, yes it is thick wall PVC.

That line is likely 1/4" ID, plus 2x 1/8" for the wall thickness = 1/2"
Could be metric, along the same dimensions.

1/4" ID for dispensing is much too wide for a kegerator:
Proper hose length - Mike Soltys

I'd look into 4mm ID EVA Barrier line, instead.
