Arrowhead Brass Plumbing 251LF Straight Hose Bibb

Product Description

The ARROWHEAD BRASS PLUMBING 251LF is a straight hose bibb designed for residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Built from red brass, this valve features a 0.5-inch male pipe thread (MPT) inlet and a 0.75-inch hose connection outlet. The lead-free construction meets current potable water regulations, making it suitable for installations where water quality compliance is required. A no-kink design at the hose outlet helps maintain consistent flow and reduces wear at the connection point. Licensed plumbers and experienced contractors are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This hose bibb is suited for installation on exterior walls, utility rooms, mechanical rooms, and other locations where a threaded supply line terminates in a standard garden hose connection. The 0.5-inch MPT inlet threads directly onto standard iron pipe or compatible threaded fittings. The unit of measure is each, and this part is packaged in quantities of 12, making it practical for multi-unit jobs or stock replenishment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing any threaded valve. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male threads before making up the connection. Do not overtighten, as red brass fittings can be damaged by excessive torque applied to threaded joints.
