Hi exmando,
I use these fittings on all the industrial hydraulic equipment that I take care of. I get everything from our Parker Distributor.
Try this Link.

Let me know if this does not work and I will try it again.
You can also look at Parker Catalog #3800 and they start at Page F-28.
Hope this helps.
Gary

They have numerous names but mainly called Minimess test fittings. As mentioned by Kenworth above, Parker make them, also Stauff.
I reckon if you google the crap out of you will find something in your area. Or try to find a Stauff or Rexroth dealer in your area they will keep them. You just need to specify what thread size.
