Yes and they are the best fittings to use for a system as 99% of the time they are leak free,I’ve got John guest fittings in my van and static system and they have never leaked I’ve always used them.

Thanks mate, I’ve used air fittings in the motor trade and always found them to be very strong compared to water fittings so I’ll give them a try!

John Guest are the king of fittings imo.

I use the black 12mm nitrile ones for everything on my system except the hose reel and pole fittings. They never leak.
