NPT 90deg female/female elbow

[flampaint]

So I'm rebuilding a SmartMag Valve which requires a female/female elbow to screw on if I want to attach a QD steel hose.

I know that there's the ugly, rather bulky-looking brass style (http://www.amazon.com/Generic-Brass-Fitting-Female-Elbow/dp/B015IHEM44/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1443526836&sr=8-5&keywords=1%2F8+fitting+90deg+female+female) does anyone know if these things are also available in a bitof a "nicer looking" package? Probably a long-shot I know... but maybe someone can point me somewhere to look for these?

Thanks!

it looks like this is the correct brass elbow (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lead-Free-Brass-Pipe-Fitting-90-Degree-Elbow-1-8-NPT-Female-/281586626119?hash=item418fdeee47) that came stock on the valves. that seller doesn't ship international, but this one does (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brass-Elbow-Fitting-1-8-NPT-Female-FPE22-/371013486122?hash=item566220862a) (including shipping to austria) and seems to have a comparable part.

Thanks! That one should work. (need to work on my google-fu skills - didn't find squat myself) Do you happen to know if these are also available in aluminum or steel (while still having a pressure rating of at least 1000PSI) and might therefore be a bit nicer-looking? :D

that's all there is man. nothing wrong with brass anyway; it is stock for that valve. lap the sides and give it a polish; it'll look great. here are some old pics of a few guns with brass fittings:

You just gave me an idea and you are absolutely right - brass will look very nice when polished :D
Thanks!
