Sometimes certain suppliers aren't as good as others, I used to get me bits and bobs from wcw but now buy all my rectus fitting dubilee clips hoses from circuit hydralics
This guy is very competitive if not cheaper and quality is much better, I batter my rectus fitting dragging them along the floor but still last approx 6 months, bought a load of male & female over a year ago and still have loads left untouched in the shed.
