It features a 1\/4 inch female NPSM swivel thread on one end and a 0.3125 inch barb sized for 5\/16 inch inside diameter hose on the other. The swivel design allows the fitting to rotate during installation, reducing hose twist and making hand-tightening easier in tight spaces. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in both liquid and low-pressure pneumatic applications. This fitting is installed by plumbers, irrigation technicians, and general maintenance trades in water supply, fluid transfer, and light industrial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and fluid-handling setups where a 5\/16 inch ID hose must connect to a 1\/4 inch female NPSM threaded port. The hose barb gasket seat design creates a reliable seal when used with a compatible hose barb insert and clamp. It is commonly installed on equipment fittings, manifolds, and inline connections where a swivel female connector simplifies routing and assembly. No specific model compatibility data was provided in the source information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in water and fluid-transfer applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale NPSM swivel thread allows rotation during installation to reduce hose twist\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHose barb gasket seat provides a secure, leak-resistant connection to 5\/16 inch ID hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch thread size fits standard NPSM-threaded ports and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.625 inch hex head size allows use of standard open-end or combination wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact, single-piece design with no additional components required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard repair fitting for systems using 1\/4 inch female NPSM threaded connections with 5\/16 inch inside diameter flexible hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShut off fluid supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any hose fitting. Thread the female NPSM swivel end onto the male port by hand first, then tighten with a wrench to the fitting hex — avoid over-tightening brass threads, which can crack or strip. Seat the barb end fully into the hose and secure with an appropriately sized hose clamp. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code guidelines for the intended fluid type and pressure rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPSM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hose Barb Gasket Seat x Female NPSM Swivel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Inside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Head Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 1260504C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696162505010,"sku":"1260504C","price":18.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/276457fc9fa27681f956c9f156845c54.jpg?v=1788340285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-1260504c-barbed-hose-fitting-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
