Eaton 10006B-B06 Barbed Hose Swivel Connector 3/8 in Brass

Product Description

The EATON 10006B-B06 is a barbed push-on hose inverted male swivel connector designed for secure hose-to-thread connections in fluid transfer applications. Machined from brass, this fitting features a 3/8 inch barb that accepts push-on hose assemblies and terminates with a 5/8-18 NPT inverted male swivel thread. The swivel design allows the hose end to rotate during installation, reducing assembly torque and preventing hose twist. At 2.02 inches in overall length with a 5/8 inch hex for wrench engagement, it suits tight-access installations common in hydraulic and pneumatic plumbing work.

This fitting is used in hydraulic hose assemblies, pneumatic lines, and fluid-handling systems where a barbed push-on hose must terminate at an NPT-threaded port. The inverted male swivel configuration is common in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and light hydraulic circuits. The 1-3/16 inch cut-off allowance provides flexibility when trimming hose ends during field assembly. Installation is typically performed by hydraulic technicians, plumbers, and fluid power specialists working on equipment requiring low-pressure or medium-pressure hose connections.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch barb inside diameter accepts standard push-on hose for tool-free hose retention
• 5/8-18 NPT inverted male swivel thread for leak-resistant port connection
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance for water, oil, and air service
• Swivel body reduces hose twist and simplifies routing during installation
• 5/8 inch hex allows standard wrench tightening in confined spaces
• 1-3/16 inch cut-off allowance for field-trimming hose ends to fit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for hydraulic and pneumatic hose assemblies using 3/8 inch inside diameter push-on hose with a 5/8-18 NPT inverted male swivel port connection.

Installation Notes

Power down or depressurize the hydraulic or pneumatic circuit completely before removing or installing any hose fitting. Inspect the mating port threads for damage before installation and apply appropriate thread sealant compatible with the system fluid. Use a wrench on the 5/8 inch hex to seat the fitting; do not grip the swivel body. Verify hose is fully seated past the barb before pressurizing the system.
