Exactly what I was looking for!

Just what I needed I looked everywhere. I should have known to start here. I came back to check other places again. This place has it all. I can't believe it was the only place. The quality is excellent! The bells are good and tight. Very satisfied! I also bought nuts from them, perfect fit, good quality! You saved my cooling pipe extension!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not sure

not yet really satisfied with the quality of the Anderson fittings

I bought several brass Anderson flare components (flare nuts, unions, plugs, etc.) and the flare surfaces did not rise. TBH, the threads aren't that clean either, but the flared surface really matters here, doesn't it? I also got a completely broken one. I was much happier with the LTWFITTING parts.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

The only place you'll find a 1/2 " flare up to a 3/8 " flare

I bought an Avenger wall heater which wasn't that warm , as I thought, but very durable. I found out that the old heater was connected with a copper pipe. So I needed an Anderson Metals brass tube fitting, reducer, 3/8" x 1/2" flare, available from Revain. I have the Mr. Heater One-Stop universal gas connection kit to change from heater to brass pipe adapter. I've never installed gas lines before, but with yellow tape attached to all connections clockwise, it was very easy. I have bubbles inโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Measures 7/8 NOT 15/16!

I bought a 5/8 to 3/8 adapter. What I got was something marked 5/8 out of 3/8. So far so good, right? I have a 5/8 OD flare and another 5/8 OD flare. They are perfect for each other. Edit: I decided to measure the adapter but had to resort to a tape measure (I don't have a caliper). Anderson's metals have a 7/8" thread size on the larger end and this is technically correct after the SAE 45ยฐ sizing. I went and measured my other 5/8 OD hardware and found that it was 15/16- inch thread. I've never
