Eaton 05705B-1560 Barbed Hose Connector 5/16 Brass Nptf

Product Description

The EATON 05705B-1560 is a brass barbed hose connector fitting designed for use in fluid transfer applications where a secure, leak-resistant connection between hose segments or between a hose and a system port is required. The fitting features a 5/16-inch barbed end sized for 5/16-inch inside diameter hose and a male NPTF threaded end for a pressure-tight mechanical seal without the need for additional sealant tape in many installations. Constructed from brass, this connector offers reliable corrosion resistance in water, oil, and fuel service environments. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fluid system assemblers commonly install this type of fitting during equipment assembly or field repair work.

This barbed connector is suited for low-pressure fluid line applications including HVAC condensate drain systems, equipment cooling circuits, fuel lines, and pneumatic or hydraulic pilot lines operating within the pressure and temperature limits of the brass alloy and connected hose material. The 5/16-inch hose ID sizing is common in condensate, tubing, and small-bore plumbing assemblies found in both residential and light commercial equipment.

Key Features

• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance for water, oil, and fuel service
• 5/16-inch barbed end matches 5/16-inch inside diameter hose for a secure push-on grip
• Male NPTF thread delivers a pressure-tight connection at the port end
• Compact single-piece design with no moving parts for long service life
• Sold individually for single-point repair or assembly use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for fluid transfer lines using 5/16-inch inside diameter hose with a male NPTF threaded port connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified mechanical assemblers. Shut off fluid supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any hose fitting. Push the barbed end fully into the hose and secure with an appropriate clamp where required by system pressure or applicable plumbing codes. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the thread form itself, but inspect threads for damage before installation and apply thread sealant if required by local code or system conditions.
