Vertex uf-15 fitting size

[afillius]

I was given a Vertex UF-15 media reactor but it is missing the barbed fittings. The threads on the unit are metric and I have order the fittings online. Does anyone know what the metric size is?

For anyone following this thread. I was told today by Vertex that the thread size is proprietary and you have to order the fittings from them. Lame...

Really? That means they made their own thread type? That doesn't sound right. There are ways around that.

What that means is they are choosing not to tell you so they can soak you for more money. Sorry man, perhaps someone with one can measure it and share there findings.
