I have a Victor inert gas regulator. Got myself a inert bottle this morning (see another thread). I also bought an inert gas line. It has fittings on both ends. The salesman said that the fittings are 5/9" NPT, he was not sure and I kind of doubt it. They do fit my welder, however, they do NOT fit the regulator.
The regulator has a "Prestolok" adapter. Looks like it is something for some 3/8" OD plastic tubing. It also appears that the prestolok fitting is screwed into the regulator with 1/4" NPT thread.
So... How do I fit the gas line to the regulator? Can I buy something like a 1/4" to [whatever is the gas line] compression fitting or some such?
thanks...
