Dear NH,

 

I was wondering if anyone had a link to a Tube-To-Tube Double Barb connector for Nerf air blaster tubing? (Like connecting a hornet pump's tubing to a 3k's tubing for example.)

 

I went to lowes and homedepot and couldn't find any correct size connectors.

 

Thanks in advance, 

Silly.

Try hardware stores (not home improvement centers like Lowes/HD) like Ace or maybe True Value.

 

 

Not sure what size you actually need. This mod suggests 1/8" and provides a mcmaster part number.

They're usually metric size tubing. Typically 4mm ID.

 

1/8" barbs will only work if they're really tall barbs. Your nearest fractional inch size that's likely to work is 5/32. For such an odd size you will probably have better luck at Grainger (though they only sell business to business), Amazon, or McMaster.

The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?

I will most likely buy one of these 2. Will post again with results for future reference.
