3/8th to 15mm fitting

[aloha99]

Hi all

I have a 3/8th's compression fitting from a coffee machine that I need to connect to a 15mm pipe. There is a 15mm isolation valve in there at the moment but the only 15mm - 3/8ths isolation valve I have is a flat face on the 3/8ths side.

Wasnt really game to try the fitting on a flat face.

Any ideas on how to connect the 3/8ths fitting to a 15mm including an isolation valve?

Thanks

So if I come out of the 15mm isolation valve to another piece of 15mm then the coupler?

Yes.

Nice one thanks, I was too caught up trying to find an isolation valve to do the job rather than the straight forward option.

That's one of the differences between a plumber and a diyer!

You will need a fitting with an internal cone for the flexi hose you have there,

No he won't!

Sounds to me as if the "flat face" is designed for a flexible hose with a sealing washer between the two flat faces!
