    Measure it with sliding rule! It could be metric size pipes of 10 an 12 mm.

    Yep, got to agree with Nike. It's metric fridge pipe.

    I have had it with Pastorfrigor/Coolfast dairy decks.

    Yep!
    Metric it is!
    I had the same with a couple of Alfa Lava condensers.
    I ended up swaging the pipe to accommodate Imperial Tails!
    I hope this Helps?

    cheers guy's it appears to be 12mm the problem i have is we removed the unit from airside of a airport to change a compressor, the engineer cut the suction and liquid line asuming it was 1/2 inch and 3/8 suction, with the plan of fitting flared strait connectors once we fitted the compressor, turned out to be 12mm pipe suction and 5/16th liquid arrrrggghhhhhh.
