Barb to -AN Fitting

Just need some quick help. I have the following cooler:



On the top it has 3/8in barb inlet and outlet fittings. I want to figure out how to adapt that to -AN. Possible? I've been looking everywhere and so far I can't find anything.

Look at a company called "swagelok" for their hose straight connectors.

No. It has an inlet/outlet barb that is not threaded. I think I found something that will work.

Best way is to cut and weld. Or you can go with the socketless hose.

If it works I'll post it up. As soon as I have my APS oil pan I'll be doing it but that may take a while due to APS shipping = slooooooooooooooooooow. I'll update this though after its done.
