I’m losing my mind over here. I’m trying to find what these darn connectors are called so I can buy some. I need to connect 1/8 or 1/4” air line tubing to an inflatable tube (probably made of PVC fabric). I have searched every way I can think of and just can’t find them. Please save me!

#reefsquad if one of you don’t know..... then none of us do. And that can’t be allowed. :)
 
@TheEngineer you may consider having this moved to something like the DIY forum that may get more eyes on it than the lounge. People click on this forum and I think the only thing they see is Sodoku eerrrr I mean drop a word, keep a word :P

True. It isn’t reef related so I figured I’d stick it here. :)
 
I forget exactly what its called but i know Medical Supply places have or can order them. I Have one for my shoulder ..
 
I don’t mean the DVT cuff, just those two connectors :)
 
Is that one that uses an ice chest for swelling?
 
You could always email it to an orthopedic surgeon's office and see if they can get you a replacement.

That’s a DVT prevention cuff. That particular one has here chambers that can be inflated separately. They’re made to run on air. These ones just have the one connection to each cell so I don’t think you can run a fluid through them.

It’s for work. I need a bunch of the connectors for prototype builds :)
 
I forgot about those. Yeah Ortho would know.
 
The bottom is a type of ribbon tubing connector might be exclusive to that sleeve. Here’s a different one though but no disconnect.

It’s from an Alibaba supplier so I’m sure nothing on that sucker is proprietary. There are 40 vendors for that exact product :)
 
Thanks for all the ideas everyone! Please keep them coming!
