lock-nut fitting are totally worth my time!

[@whanamoto]

Thanks for the video. Warming the tube made inserting the barb fitting much easier.

[@david2m2anderson]

Bravio! Plenty of detail and helpful suggestions.

[@HannahsYT]

This was actually quite helpful for me! Thank you for quickly explaining the pros/cons of each fitting type :)

This is great and VERY helpful with useful information that doesn’t make me feel dumb.

how to get a fitting to the water source not to leak. I have tried several and they all leak. what do you recommend

[@samanthamariah7625]

Does the Lock Nut Fittings use outer diameter or inner diameter for measurements? Thanks you

[@Boja23]

This was helpful, but why would they make so many sizes a variance of .03-.07 inches? Stick to .57, or even better, .5! I’ve got “T” barbed fittings running down each row in my garden that are leaking, clamped to max, and now I realize I must have the sizes wrong. The other factor is the polybutylene tube was reused and may have stretched. Not I’m trying to figure out, do I need to replace all of the fittings, put in PVC or all-purpose cement, or maybe even Teflon tape to make up for the size/swelling issue.

Compression fittings are very much reusable. Leave a longer tail, put it in hot water and pull it out. had it done countless times.
