For all things like this I use GEKA fittings.... from 1/2 inch up.....last forever and occasionally replace the rubber washers/seal.

Have them on my tanks, ro, di, pump, external water tap....makes everything easy , same connectors on everything....swap hoses in/out regardless of hose sizes.

Cheers Dave.

Never had much success with geka they always seem to drip after a couple of reconnects
