Midland Industries 07020-0804 90 Deg Hose Barb Elbow Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 07020-0804 is a forged brass 90-degree male elbow fitting designed to transition between a 1/2-inch hose barb and a 1/4-inch male NPTF threaded connection. Built from forged brass for reliable pressure containment, it carries a maximum operating pressure rating of 150 psi and is rated for temperatures from -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F. The 1/4-18 thread specification ensures a tight, leak-resistant seal on compatible NPTF ports. This fitting is commonly installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system mechanics in applications requiring a directional change between a barbed hose line and a threaded port.

This elbow fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving compressed air, water, fuel, or other fluid lines where a 90-degree change of direction is needed. With a 0.59-inch body size, a 0.68-inch barb length, and a center-to-end measurement of 1.06 by 1 inch, the compact footprint makes it practical in tight plumbing or mechanical enclosures. It is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment, pneumatic systems, and general-purpose fluid transfer assemblies operating within the rated temperature and pressure range.

Key Features

• Forged brass construction for strength and corrosion resistance in fluid service
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional routing without additional hardware
• 1/2-inch hose barb inlet secures standard hose with a clamp
• 1/4-inch male NPTF outlet threads directly into compatible female NPTF ports
• Rated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure
• Wide temperature range of -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F suits varied install environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style forged brass hose barb fitting for fluid and pneumatic systems requiring a 1/2-inch hose barb to 1/4-inch male NPTF 90-degree transition.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified mechanic following applicable IPC or system-specific codes. Shut off fluid or air supply and relieve all system pressure before removing or installing fittings. Secure hose barb connections with an appropriately sized clamp to prevent hose pullout under pressure. Do not exceed the rated 150 psi operating pressure or the specified temperature limits of the fitting.
