The fitting features a 1\/8 inch hose barb on one end and a 1\/8 inch female NPTF thread on the other, creating a secure, leak-resistant connection between hose and threaded fittings. Constructed from brass, it offers solid corrosion resistance for use in low-pressure plumbing, pneumatic, and general fluid transfer applications. The overall length is 0.96 inches and the hex head measures 0.5 inches across flats for wrench engagement. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial service professionals routinely use this style of fitting during hose assembly and equipment hookups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications where 1\/8 inch ID flexible hose must terminate at a female NPT threaded port. Typical install scenarios include compressed air lines, water supply connections, and equipment fluid circuits requiring a reliable barb-to-threaded transition. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal when properly torqued and may be used with or without thread sealant depending on the service fluid and system requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch hose barb sized for 1\/8 inch ID hose inside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch female NPTF threaded connection for pressure-tight sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5 inch hex head allows standard wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 0.96 inches suits tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connection type compatible with standard pipe fittings assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1\/8 inch ID flexible hose with 1\/8 inch female NPTF threaded port connections in plumbing, pneumatic, and fluid transfer applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians using an appropriately sized open-end or adjustable wrench on the hex head. Always depressurize and shut off fluid supply to the system before removing or installing hose fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or compound per the system requirements and applicable plumbing codes before threading the fitting into the port. Do not overtighten the barbed end connection, as this can crack the hose or distort the barb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hose Barb x Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Inside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Head Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.96 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141734\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIXON VALVE COUPLING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1040202C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710345937202,"sku":"1040202C","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f06a21e5170252f8c643cfc35f07d572.jpg?v=1788465928","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-1040202c-barbed-hose-fitting-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
