Hi,

I have just got a 4 way gas manifold from morebeer in the states and am finding it nigh on impossible to get my gas line over the large barbs. I have quite thin line that I am trying to use for this (that fits over the barb for the regulator and gas out ball lock type fitting).

I also have some wider 'cobraline' stuff that I was to use for the beer. Can I swap them around and use the thicker line for gas and thinner for beer? Will this be safe at the other end on the smaller barbs?

Cheers
Carl
 
You could probably swap them over without much fuss unless you need to run insane pressures through the line. The other option is a line reducer from your LHBS. They cost a couple of bucks and can be used for a variety of tubings, consult your LHBS he should have all the plumbing gear to make it work well.
