Loc Line for dust blower

[Hawk]

I'm trying to upgrade/replace the dust blower on my Delta P-20 with Loc-Line.  The original one broke at the entry point on the upper arm. I need to find a nut to go on the Loc-Line connector, the size I need is 10mm with a pitch of 1.0, I've been searching hardware stores, online and I find plenty of 10mm with a pitch of 1.5

Any idea where I could fine a nut to fit the part in the picture? the smaller one is what fit the hole for the blower line.

Hope this wasn't too confusing.

Thanks, Chris

are you sure you need a nut.  Could you use heat shrink tubing on the fitting that is left

[Hawk]

The fitting fits through a hole in the side of the upper arm. Shrink tubing may work, I'll keep that in mind.

I don't know what size these are in this kit but it shows two different threaded parts and one looks a lot like what you show here. I've bought pieces and parts of this stuff from here before so maybe do some looking. Also known as coolant hose for metal drills/lathes etc. so that might be another search term to use.

Edit

Oopps I guess I should have read better. Looks like you've already searched the parts but cannot find exact thread size.

I'm thinking that I may need to improvise and adapt something, I can find something that looks like it may work on the Loc Line site, but the description isn't the best, and buying 20 of them to get it wrong doesn't   make since. 

The search continues....................

Hi,

you should try McMaster-Carr , in their website you'll find any kind of nuts …..they are not cheap but you’ll find what you need.

Kind regards

Those are pipe threads. Not metric.

Kind of what I was thinking too. 
 

Also I’m quite sure loc line has adapters to go from metal tubing to their plastic fittings. They are pretty versatile. Somewhere ( maybe eBay) I’ve seen these fittings sold individually.

That is a loc-line product. You might contact them here and ask.  I have purchased directly from them before:  https://www.loc-line.com

Here is where I have purchased all my Loc-Line stuff.

Hot glue works great.  It will come off too, just takes a little work.

RTV Silicone works well too.

Well, what I did was fashion a nut out of yellow heart and along with some Goop glued the assembly into the P20. Trying to get that "nut" on then the hose put thru it under that arm was not easy for this guy. But it works and that what counts.

I really like my P20, it's just so dang heavy (lol)

Thanks for all the suggestions.
