anyone know of an online source for Parker parts?

McMaster-Carr. Their stuff is sold "unbranded", but are invariably Parker parts. And no matter what Swagelok says, the two systems completely interchange. I've switched completely.

Thanks Dave, but McMaster doesnt have this particular part. I have enquiries out with a couple of Parker distributors, but they all seem hesitant to sell low quantities.

They will order anything you can get a PN for.... just call their customer service number. Even if it's not a cataloged item, they will get it.

I doubt it's what you need. Since it's specific.

But for CHEAP swagelock or Parker parts. Try EBAY. I've gotten a lot from them. But, if it's something for a non standard fit. Probably not.

They sell a lot of that stuff on Ebay. Disconnect fittings and all.

I got all my disconnects new for around $30. Chrome plated Brass. And I bought 10 sets. You can't buy one for that. I went with larger. So using drygloves would be easier.

Oh, Swagelock and Parker are pretty interchangeable. We used both in Plants for years. Grab one or the other. No thought to it. Never a problem.
