It's the same as dura pipe, you can still buy imperial and metric pipe and fittings in dura pipe from bss and pipe center. It's used in commercial/ industrial cold water systems. You used to be able to get fast set pvc cement for it but that's been removed from sale and you can only get the 24hr stuff now.
On 3/8 I normally use a 3/8 to 1/2 adaptor, a 1/2 female and a standard compression 15 x 1/2 male iron.
its best to advise your customer that it's probably very brittle and should be replaced.
If your struggling for fittings go to the local cafe or merchant where the council plumbers hang, if the area has this pipe they will know where to get the fittings.
