Anderson Metals Corp 53748-1212 Nylon Barb Adapter 3/4 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 53748-1212 is a nylon barb adapter fitting designed to connect a 3/4-inch inner diameter barbed hose to a 3/4-inch male garden hose thread. This type of fitting is a standard transition piece used in low-pressure fluid transfer applications where a flexible hose must terminate at a garden hose threaded outlet. The nylon construction keeps weight low and provides adequate corrosion resistance for water-handling service. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and pool service professionals commonly install this fitting when routing flexible tubing to hose-threaded ports on pumps, tanks, valves, or distribution manifolds.

This barb adapter is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving garden hose thread connections. Typical install scenarios include portable pump discharge lines, irrigation supply headers, pool and spa accessory plumbing, and general fluid transfer setups where a barbed hose end must mate to a male GHT port. The fitting is sold in a package quantity of five units, making it practical for service vehicles or small jobs requiring multiple connections.

Key Features

• 3/4-inch inner diameter barb end accepts standard flexible hose for a secure push-on grip

Compatibility

Designed as a standard barb-to-male-garden-hose-thread adapter suitable for use with 3/4-inch inner diameter flexible hose in low-pressure water transfer, irrigation, and pool or spa plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by plumbers, irrigation technicians, or pool service professionals. Shut off water supply and relieve line pressure before making or breaking any connections. Push the barb end fully into the hose and secure with an appropriate clamp to prevent blowoff under flow conditions. Hand-tighten the GHT thread connection and verify for leaks before returning the system to service; avoid over-torquing nylon threads.
