Anderson Metals 757048-1012 Brass Barb X Male Ght Fitting

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 757048-1012 is a lead-free brass barb-to-male garden hose fitting designed to connect flexible tubing to a standard male garden hose thread (GHT) port. The fitting accepts a 5/8-inch barb on one end and threads into a 3/4-inch GHT female port on the other. Lead-free brass construction meets drinking-water-safe material requirements, making this fitting appropriate for potable water, irrigation, and general fluid-transfer applications. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced DIYers install this type of fitting when transitioning between barbed flexible tubing and a threaded garden hose connection point.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, and outdoor water supply lines where a 3/4-inch GHT male thread is required. The standard shank barb design seats securely in flexible tubing when a hose clamp is applied. Typical installations include hose bib extensions, drip-irrigation manifolds, and portable water-supply hookups requiring a reliable barb-to-hose-thread transition.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction suitable for potable water applications
• 3/4-inch GHT male thread for direct connection to standard garden hose fittings
• 5/8-inch standard shank barb for use with compatible flexible tubing
• Compact form factor for installations with limited clearance
• Single-piece brass body resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation barb-to-male GHT fitting for systems using 3/4-inch garden hose thread ports and 5/8-inch barb tubing connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers or irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before installing or removing any fitting. Thread the male GHT end into the female port by hand, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten brass threads. Secure the barb end to flexible tubing using an appropriately sized hose clamp to prevent blowoff under pressure.
