Item as described, fittings ok, nuts replaced with main end locknuts, then remaining fittings screwed in to the hilt, all tightened. When it rusts it rusts well, contrary to what you pay why expect SS hardware. My only downside was that it would have been better to mount the colored tubing on the inside, put shrink wrap on the inner ridge, and then slide the red tubing over it for a while. tight fit. Overall I like it and it was what I expected.
