Metric Supply Lines? I nicked the pre-installed lines and need to fix it.

Hi Guys,

I have a Jacuzzi branded faucet that I'm installing and I nicked the pre installed supply line with a blade. I need to fix it before I install it, but I'm unfamiliar with this type of fitting. The manufacturer lists a part number as RP70661 for the supply line, but they haven't answered the phone.

I think the fitting might be an M10? How do these fittings work and where would I source a 40 inch long hose?

Lastly, would you consider cutting the hose and putting a barbed fitting in there as a repair?...

Those supply lines have a rubber O-Ring and they thread in.
I don't believe a barbed fitting will work there. If you need more length, you can add a supply line to that.

Thanks Terry, thats what I thought. However, as you can barely see in the photo there are no flats on the hose fitting and only the crimped portion is exposed from the casting. I tried backing it out with some channel locks on the crimping but it just seems to spin.

I was hoping there was a secret.

They should only be hand tight
