RV water pump fitting: 1/2"-14 QEST?

[Andy Bowman]

Hi - I am trying to add a loop of flex tubing to the outlet of my RV water pump. The pump already has a loop on the inlet side but I want to add a loop on the outlet to quiet down the pump. It is a Flo Jet 12V pump, with what I think are "quad port" outlets on it. I can find the quick connect to 5/8" hose barb very easily, but on the PEX line side (where the pump was directly hooked to) I think it's a QEST female fitting. Very similar in size to a 1/2 NPT thread, but not tapered. I found a lot of Flo Jet adapters from the pump to a 1/2"-14 QEST male fitting, but I cannot find ANY other fittings with that thread size anywhere. I just want to go from male QEST to a hose barb!!!!

Does anyone know where to look for these fittings?

RV supply place comes to mind.

I searched for qest rv fittings in a search engine, and got a bunch of hits-- but not the adapter you want.

Then I tried rv "qest" adapter "npt" and got some that may be more relevant.

If they dont make it they dont make it I looked as well, but not sure what you need and my powers on internet are no better than anyones. Im sure there is a simple fix your hooking an rv water pump to plastic pipe right? maybe your in a tight spot I dont know what the problem is? There isnt an adapter for everything is all I can tell you
Cant you just cut the pex and put a compression or male adapter or a shark bite ? this has gotta be simple
