Brasscraft bc-125-6-6x 3/8 in Hose Barb X 3/8 Mip Fitting

Product Description

The BRASSCRAFT bc-125-6-6x is a hose barb-to-male pipe thread fitting designed for connecting flexible hose lines to threaded pipe or equipment ports. The barbed end accepts 3/8 inch inside diameter hose, while the male iron pipe (MIP) end threads into a standard 3/8 inch female NPT port. This type of fitting is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC, and gas appliance applications where a flexible hose must transition to a rigid threaded connection. Plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting during equipment hookups, appliance connections, and repair work on existing hose assemblies.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a 3/8 inch ID hose line meets a 3/8 inch MIP threaded port. Typical installation scenarios include water supply connections, appliance gas line assemblies, and fluid transfer systems that use flexible hose. The MIP thread end allows direct installation into female NPT-threaded valves, manifolds, and equipment inlets without additional adapters.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch ID hose barb end for secure grip on compatible flexible hose
• 3/8 inch MIP (male iron pipe) threaded end for standard NPT female port connections
• Single-piece fitting design for straightforward hose-to-pipe transitions

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MIP threads before installation, and ensure the hose is fully seated over the barb and secured with an appropriately rated clamp. Follow all applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes.
