Correction:
I didn't remember buying any metric threaded fittings. I thought the fittings I had were a 10/32 UNF thread. I tried a 10/32 nut on one and it didn't want to thread on. I tried the Metric M5-0.8 thread & it screwed right in & tightened up. I checked my receipt from Mettle Air & it showed I purchased the fittings with a 10/32 UNF thread. I tried another nut & it tightened right up. The metric and the 10/32 thread must be very close as I can not tell the difference. The 10/32 thread with the 1/4" air line is a more common fitting.
This is the exact fitting I used that I got from Mettle Air. I picked this fitting because it has a sealing o ring. Most have a nylon washer.

Chappell, That's the nicest thing any one has said to me this year.
