What's that old saying? You get what you pay for?.. I went cheap on my PTFE fittings and sure as **** they leak something fierce. All the swivels leak on my newly installed return system. Also found out that if you don't order carbon lines ptfe you will basically burst into flames and die a firey death. I'm just ranting because I'm basically out 200 bucks on the cheap ****. But, that's my fault.

In anycase, has anyone used Fragola fittings? Looks to be of nice quality, and offer a ptfe "lined" -6 and the only one I can find that has a 180* fitting, since I guess mixing hose and fittings is frowned upon. I looked at aeroquip, but no 180* fitting that I need. The aeroquip stuff is only about 40 bucks more overall. Sorry for the rant :/

 

Fragola FTW if you have the extra coin to drop. Very nice products but expensive. I have used them on prior builds. But I have not used their PTFE line. But I would like to. But their black nylon braided hose is super easy to work with

 

I have all Fragola PTFE on mine.

 

I used Fragola fittings and the summit braided line. Worked and didn't have a single leak. They won't ship the assembly lube to Alaska so I used Marvel oil to assemble the fittings.

 

I used Aeroquip braided PTFE and Russell adapters. No leaks whatsoever.

 

I just used a little bit of motor oil, worked fine.

 

Sounds good, thanks for the insite! Sucks spending money twice, especially when the second time around it more expensive!

 

Fragola is junk. There's a reason its half the price of the good brands.

 

I have used Fragola many times and i have never had an issue. Just watch a couple of vids on hoe to properly assemble PTFE hose ends.

 

What did you run in place? I read over your thread earlier
