I think Tractor supply has the SS fittings on the shelf 
and most any hydraulic shop should have them.  Around
here the plumbing supply houses (good ones) have them
too as well as a couple of the hardware stores.

That sounds like liquid NH3 which is Ammonia.   Brass will be eaten up 
in a heartbeat.  If you can find nylon or fibre that will stand your 
pressure,  Then Stainless is your only alternative. Galvanized will do 
the same thing just a little longer.   It also releases bad vapors.  Try 
www.DiscountHydraulicHose.com  They ship pretty fast..
