Interface? They are different threads for the specific applications. The push in part of these fittings have nothing to do with the port size thread type.

The push in fitting needs to be for the standard FIRST .25" hose size. The fittings you get from AM will fit this hose and whatever fittings you will buy will need to be sized for this hose. I believe you will find this to be the standard size for most of the fittings you will see.

Also if you see 6mm hose size fittings they will works as well (I belie what comes from on the festos from AM is 6mm)
