I need:

1/4” FFL swivel nut to 1/4” beverage tubing barb
1/4” beverage tubing barb to 1/2” pex barb

The swivel nut is going on a keg quick connect that has a 1/4” MFL barb. The other end is to tap my 1/2” pex water supply. I need to get water supply to the keg…

can’t find anything at the hardware store I figured you guys might know. At the 1/2” pex supply best fitting would be a 1/2 pex x 1/2 pex x 1/4 barb reducing tee

Have you considered push-to-connect fittings?

Might need to change your tubing but that's an inexpensive swap.

Might be able to find another sharkbite type fitting for this as well.

What bigdropper said. Switch to shark bites and dump the barbs. I had so many leaks with barbs and clamps. The shark bite fittings are so much easier to use.

ok thx to you both
I’m not familiar with the push to connect fittings as I was trying to use what I have

I’ll go to the depot again and take a look
