Cpc Colder Products HFCD17612 Inline Hose Barb Coupling

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS HFCD17612 is a 3/8-inch nominal flow inline hose barb to female socket coupling designed for fluid line connections in industrial and commercial fluid handling systems. Built from polypropylene with an EPDM O-ring, this shutoff-style coupling handles working pressures up to 60 psi and temperatures ranging from 32 to 230 degrees F. It is sold as a single unit and is installed by plumbing technicians, fluid system integrators, and maintenance professionals working on liquid transfer or coolant distribution lines.

This coupling is suited for inline fluid line assemblies where a hose barb termination connects to a female socket on the mating half. The 3/8-inch inside diameter barb accepts standard 3/8-inch ID flexible hose or tubing. The polypropylene construction provides resistance to many common process fluids, and the EPDM O-ring maintains a reliable seal across the rated temperature range. Typical applications include equipment cooling loops, chemical transfer lines, and fluid distribution manifolds in light industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

• 3/8-inch nominal flow and 3/8-inch tube inside diameter for direct hose barb connection
• Polypropylene body provides chemical resistance and lightweight durability
• EPDM O-ring sealing element compatible with water and many process fluids
• Shutoff valve type prevents fluid spill when disconnected
• 60 psi maximum working pressure rated for low-to-medium pressure fluid systems
• Wide operating temperature range: 32 to 230 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style inline coupling for flexible hose assemblies using 3/8-inch ID hose in fluid transfer and cooling systems. Mates with corresponding CPC female socket half couplings in the same product series.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified plumbing or fluid system technicians. Depressurize and drain the fluid line completely before disconnecting or replacing any coupling. Ensure the hose barb is fully seated and secured with an appropriate clamp to prevent pull-off under working pressure. Verify that the process fluid is compatible with polypropylene and EPDM before placing the coupling in service.
