I've had a quick look around but can't seem to find anything recent on Cam Lock Fittings. Anybody know of an Irish supplier and prices before I order from UK?

Got all mine from the BrewPi store and BrewHardware in the States. Make sure you order them all from one source, as some can have different thickness of silicon washers and won't close.
Fermenting: IPA, Lambic, Mead
Conditioning: Lambic, Cider, RIS, Ole Ale, Saison
On Tap: IPA, Helles, Best Bitter

Micro hydraulics have them, not sure of prices as they don't stock them down here in cork, but there's a members discount.

If your in Dublin north side area, total stainless have them. Not sure of price.

Oh Crap

I got mine from Tec industrial in Dublin
The lad I dealt with was ciaran. I got a quote and told him it was too dear and he dropped all prices to equivalent Chinese prices (or as close to) what sizes u looking for?
I'll dig out the invoice tomorrow

1 is good, 2 is better, 3 is enough & 4 isn't half enough

I'm looking for 9 X 1/2" Part A, 6 X 1/2" Part C and 1 X 1/2" Part F and a dozen 1/2" silicone gaskets.

It would be great if I could get them here as the UK prices are scary when you add postage and currency conversion,  :-\

A couple of street elbows are a good idea also where you connect to the outlet of the vessels it means that the silicone hoses are pointing down rather than straight out if you know what I mean, it puts less strain on the hose and fitting. The female part of the elbow fits onto the camlock and the silicone hose fits over the male threaded part.
There's no such thing as bad beer - some just taste better than others
