I am looking for black stainless steel macroline fittings. Do they make these? where can I get them?

Don't make them. They make Al ones but they arn't safe for pantball.

nope... not made, best you'll get is black 90º elbow with straight macro fittings that are shrinkwrapped w/ black shrink tubing

If you want some hose that will really stand out, go to an auto parts store and get a greese gun hose. It has the same fittings as a SS and looks neat. I used to use one for my cocker bottomline. Worked great with co2, not sure if it can withstand nitro but I would guess it would work. Only problem is the hose only comes in a couple lengths. Definately black and unique though. :headbang:

A decent gunsmith should be able to blacken stainless steel.
Blackened stainless slides are rather popular today.

It can withstand HPA, I use it on my EMag all time. It's rated at 3,000 psi working pressure for hydraulic purposes, with a burst pressure of 12,000 psi. I've heard that you half that for pneumatic pressure (so 1,500 working, 6k burst). Pretty nice stuff. Someone posted this link last time we had a discussion on this topic:
