How about a pic. I have a sub gravity mav and it takes 9/16 and 3/8 fittings.
I haven't seen one that didn't use a standard regulator hose. Either the 1/8 female opening or a male 9/16.

That's a 9/16 fitting. Sometimes they use a bushing to get it down to the standard 3/8.
They're usually lock-tited in so make sure none of that crispy lock-tite is dropping into the cartridge.
Sub gravity sells them you might have to call, or you can get a bushing to reduce that to a 3/8 unf

Be gentle with metal to delrin connections. Do not use loctite, do not try to tighten it too much either.
Thanks guys. I emailed SG to see if they have replacement 9/16 QDs since I didn’t see them listed on their website. For that matter, I’m having trouble finding them anywhere.
To your point @kensuf I’ve been very gentle with removing and reinstalling them. I’ve stripped delrin before on accident and learned that lesson. Gently snug and don’t over-tighten.
