Anderson Metals Corp 757020-0604 Brass Barb Elbow 90 Deg

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 757020-0604 is a 90-degree brass barb insert elbow designed to transition between a 3/8 inch hose ID and a 1/4 inch male pipe thread (MPT) connection. It is used in fluid-handling systems where a right-angle change of direction is needed between a flexible hose and a threaded port. The fitting is manufactured from brass and is lead-free compliant, meeting the requirements of Public Law 111-380. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in low-pressure water, gas, and fluid transfer lines.

This barb elbow is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a flexible hose must terminate at a threaded fitting at a 90-degree angle. Typical use cases include water supply lines, appliance connections, irrigation assemblies, and HVAC condensate or fluid tubing runs. The 3/8 inch barb end accepts standard hose with a matching 3/8 inch inside diameter, while the 1/4 inch MPT end threads directly into a female-threaded port or fitting. It is sold in bulk packs of 5 units.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before installation. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male pipe threads per local plumbing code before threading into the female port. Secure the hose over the barb end with an appropriate hose clamp to ensure a leak-free connection.
