I'm looking for what seems to be a special air hose... of course...
The standard one is:
3/8" I.D. Air Hose Assembly with 3/8" One Fixed-One Swivel Ends
The swivel then usually comes with an adapter and by default this adapter is for 3/8" mpt.

..however, I need the adapter to be 1/4" mpt.
I found 1/4" x 1/4" hoses in 3/8" diameter but that won't work because then the one fixed end is 1/4" mpt.
Haldex doesnt make what I am looking for, so I wouldnt mind buying the hose above but cant find these adapters I need.....
I believe they are bubble flair to mpt ?

Just make one with compression fittings.

napa can make just about anything you need hose wise.

You could use the 1/4" X 1/4" hose with a 3/8" to 1/4" bushing at one end.
Hanadarko Thanks this. -

It's acceptable to use a bushing but not an adapter as the adapters often get broken off easily.
-
Go to a truck dealer they stock the right hose.

Weatherhead and gates both sell that hose. The fitting on the swivel end is interchangeable between hoses, the flare end of the fitting is the same so you could just use your original 1/4" fitting on the new hose.
