No, please don't delete!!  ;D

I had missed the link on th AD website that said Please check back later, or visit a stockist listed on our 'Where to buy' page. so thought one of them may carry them, but they don't!

I have but came up blank. A Mate of mine said he knew of a supplier that calls on his business, and he will get a price for me. I will keep you posted who would need if I come right.

I think Jouk, from the wfp training academy, originally found these a few years ago.
Is the academy forum still up n running, if so go and ask Jo.

Yes, one would have to lay out a lot of money to afford the volume one needs.

Where in the system are people using these? I am guessing its to connect the mini/microbore to the pole hose. If so is .25inch a problem when trying to get the barb into the pole hose?

Microbore hose and pole hose are both 6mm (1/4inch) if your using mini bore that's 8mm (5/16)

I have returned to rectus 21 -  the connector I tested started playing up after 7 weeks by constantly disconnecting same really as it was really working great until then

it playing up with getting the male in and out of the female connector?
I have that problem on mine, but a little bit of wd40 then wash it off it becomes easy to use again.

its just the rubber causing that

No the latch won't hold it in place

You either have to connect with no pressure or use both hands and get your nail in to push the latch over but as soon as you turn the pump on and start moving around it pings off again
