Not really sure where to post this, but I wonder if anyone can help me find a reasonably priced 1/8 NPT male to hose barb adaptor (I'm not really bothered about the size of the hose barb as I'll simply source a hose to fit).

The cheapest one I've found in the UK is £2.99, plus £20 postage!!

No engineering suppliers in your area?

Machine Mart might have something that will work.

Ok, thanks for the suggestions.

I think I've found what I need, unhelpfully the parts are called "push-on" fittings or hose unions instead of barbs by various suppliers.

These should do the job:
