![]() I don't use those, but if I did, I'd use 3/8" tubing as I think that's the size that slips over the end of the maxijets, and then use 3/8" JG fittings on the canister. They might be a bit more obtuse to source but you should be able to get 3/8" to 1/4" NPT if that is the size the canister needs.
Failing that (the more specialized pushfittings can be hard to find sometimes) I would use a 3/8" to 1/4" reducer coupler (pushfitting or whatever) and basically 3/8" from the maxijet to there, then 1/4" or whatever size the canister requires.

![]() What's your main concern?
I've done enough crazy things with maxijets, and those style of canisters, that I am speaking with *some* authority on the subject (I know a thing or two about a thing or two ![]() At least with the canisters I have worked with, the pushfittings for input and output are threaded into a tap on the canister. So it's just a matter of getting ones the right size. Most are 1/4" tubing but you can get 3/8" pushfitting to 1/4" threaded adapters. Hope this helps ![]()

![]() My biggest concerns are what fitting come with the unit (1/4"?) and how to adapt to the MJs
You say 3/8" I assume you mean ridgid line, and J&L doesn't sell it I'll deal with it when the time comes, but I was hoping for some solid info about what to buy so I can just install them without running around looking for stuff |

![]() Greg, you can buy those canisters with 3/8 NPT fittings that would fit those 3/8 john guest quick release thinga ma bobs.
So what are you wanting? Looking for? 3/8 john guest or 3/8 tubing? or canisters with 3/8 NPT openings? |
