Midland Industries 07208-0808 Brass Swivel Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 07208-0808 is a brass swivel adapter designed to connect a 1/2-inch push-on hose barb to a 1/2-inch female ball seat swivel. This fitting allows rotational movement at the swivel end, reducing hose strain and making assembly easier in tight or awkward plumbing runs. Rated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure, it is well-suited for fluid transfer lines in plumbing, hydraulic, and general industrial applications. The 1/2-14 thread ensures a secure, leak-resistant connection. Overall length is 1.88 inches with a 0.93-inch hex for wrench engagement. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, as well as fluid transfer and hydraulic hose assemblies where a swiveling female ball seat connection is required on one end and a push-on hose barb on the other. The push-on barb end accepts standard 1/2-inch hose without the need for additional clamps in low-pressure hose assembly configurations, while the ball seat swivel end provides flexible positioning for the mating hose or line.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before disassembling or installing any fitting. Use a wrench on the 0.93-inch hex only - do not grip the swivel body to torque the fitting. Inspect threads and seating surfaces for damage before assembly, and verify the system does not exceed the 150 psi rated pressure after pressurizing.
