Hi all, does any one know what type of fittings are in the picture and what these need to be replaced with? Are they compression fittings like these:

Hose Connectors 1/4" BSP Female to 5/16" Hose Tail

I am replacing the fuel system with a new Racor and new fuel lines the old ones were crimped. I am not intending on replacing them with crimped again. IF it matters this is on a Bavaria 31 from 2001.
Thanks a lot in advance for any help.

Compression fittings with a hosetail for the flexible hose pipe.

Zinc plated, possibly NPT?

Without seeing/measuring/trying known sized fitting difficult to be sure.
Thanks very much; yes annoyingly I forgot to measure so I don't know what size they are! I am fitting an 8mmm hose pipe but don't know the size of the bit that attaches to the fuel tank
 
Standard connex compression fittings, often referred to as hydraulic cutting ring, Looks like 8mm or 10mm, fittings cheap from hydraulic hose trade counter so you could probably buy a selection for under £5

Hi there,

How did you get on with this project? I'm about to do a similar job - have you any tips?

Thanks
