Im trying to find a set of these but it is proving more difficult than anticipated. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I need all 3 ROTJ Gauntlet hose connectors. Thanks

Go to lowes/home depot/ace/etc and get the tubing from your local sink hardware section. This is from home depot.



The hoses come in various sizes. Bring your gauntlets to make sure you have the correct size. They come in 10 foot lengths. For a more screen accuracy soak the tubes in a substance like coffee for a week or so to give it the screen accurate brown tinge.

Look up gauntlet hose connector in the search and I think you will find what you are looking for.

you'll have to drill out the whipcord housing hose attachments and top hose attachment. Epoxy (or adhesive of choice) the splicers in place. Press the tubes kn. Heating the tubes lightly helps.

Hey thrakah,

I think these might be what you're looking for:

Anderson Metals 56112 Brass Pipe Fitting, Close Nipple, 3/8" NPT Male, 1" Length: Industrial Pipe Fittings: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific
Anderson Metals Brass Pipe Fitting, Coupling, 3/8" x 3/8" Female Pipe: Industrial Pipe Fittings: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

note -- that 3/8" coupling is not quite right; too fat and missing the central raised bit, but you can probably ID the correct one at Lowes/Home Depot.


Anderson Metals Brass Tube Fitting, Short Flare Nut, 3/8" Tube OD: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

and I think this:

is the thread that frb13 was referencing.

Cheers,
