For those looking to save every gram or if you have space limitations, I just installed these neat push lock connectors and 1/8 tube from MSC Industrial Supply.

Shown for comparison is the ubiqitous 1/4 tube.


The tube is a dime per foot and the fittings only a couple of bucks each.


The link to the fitting is here:


They are available in a wide variety of sizes and the tubing is too.

I've never dealt with MSC before but they are fantastic. I'll be using them a bunch in the future.
