Boost Gauge Ferrel Fitting

Anybody know where I can purchase just the 1/8 tubing boost gauge ferrel or know of a way I could seal the thing on the compression fitting at the gauge?

I think I’ve purchased them at my local auto parts store or hardware store. Sorry, fuzzy memory.

They have them. You might have to buy a ‘tubing kit’ that has hose and a compression nut.

Yeah my local auto parts stores tell me I would have to buy the whole nine yards. I will try hardware stores or maybe Fastenal or maybe I can get Isspro or Riffraff to just send me one...Maybe they will who knows...

Yeah SSJ I might have to just bite the bullet and buy just the tubing kit. That would leave me with more excess stuff just laying around the garage. LOL...Already have so much leftovers I feel like an automotive hoader..

Yeah, I have a pretty awesome local auto parts store.

Worst case should be buying the threaded side, ferrel, and nut as a set. But I’m almost positive I’ve purchased just the ferrels alone.

Yeah a long time ago auto parts stores carried little packs of 2 and 4 ferrels without having to buy the whole nine yards, but it seems they quit carrying just the ferrels.

Ok this isn’t my good local store since they don’t have a website but found this online. My searches for ferrule were not working so well so maybe the wording in this link is a better search term.

Edit: Yep, “brass compression sleeve” brings up a lot of options.

My go-to is an old school store. They still turn rotors and make hydraulic hoses too. And can also look up parts in a book. 😮

Thanks RacinJasonWV...there they are...and it turns out I can order them via Carquest 14 miles from me in Sequim, WA. Carquest and Advance Auto are one in the same depending on what part of the country you are in...

Just ordered the ferrels to be sent to my address...Thanks again...

You probably can find them at your local hardware store such as ACE or TruValue, etc.
