Dixon Valve Coupling DV-00324 Hose Insert Barb X Npt

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING DV-00324 is a stainless steel hose insert fitting designed to create a secure, leak-resistant connection between a threaded pipe and a flexible hose. The male NPT (MNPT) threaded end connects to standard pipe or equipment ports, while the barbed end inserts into 5/8-inch inside diameter hose and locks in place when secured with a hose clamp. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, chemical, or outdoor service environments. This fitting is installed by plumbers, irrigation technicians, industrial maintenance crews, and fluid-handling system builders who need a reliable barb-to-thread transition.

The DV-00324 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, industrial fluid transfer lines, and general-purpose hose assemblies where a 1/2-inch MNPT thread must transition to a 5/8-inch ID flexible hose. The barbed profile is compatible with standard flexible hose in that bore size, including rubber and reinforced PVC hose used in water supply and fluid conveyance applications. Each package contains 2 fittings.
