It serves as a transition connector in low- and medium-pressure fluid or gas lines where a barbed hose meets a compression-style tube connection. Built from brass, this adapter resists corrosion and handles operating temperatures from -65 to 250 degrees F with a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi. Its compact size makes it practical in tight installations. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas service professionals install this type of adapter in equipment connections, appliance supply lines, and instrumentation tubing runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a hose barb connection must terminate or transition into a compression fitting. Typical install scenarios include equipment hookups, small-diameter tubing runs, and service connections on HVAC systems, refrigeration equipment, plumbing fixtures, and gas appliances. The 7\/16-24 thread specification makes it compatible with standard fittings in that thread class. Its small footprint and moderate pressure rating make it a practical choice for confined-space connections in service and repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch hose barb on one end, 1\/4-inch compression on the other for direct barb-to-compression transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 300 psi maximum operating pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/16-24 thread specification for compatibility with standard fittings in that class\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions suit tight or confined installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems requiring a 1\/4-inch hose barb to 1\/4-inch compression transition in brass with a 7\/16-24 thread configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or gas service professional. Shut off the fluid or gas supply and relieve all system pressure before disconnecting any fittings. Ensure the compression nut and ferrule are properly seated before tightening to avoid leaks. Verify that thread type and size match the mating fitting before assembly to prevent cross-threading or fitting failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hose Barb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18534\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950307246386,"sku":"18534","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f540c1c3f2fead09ceac82bbc1f1383b.jpg?v=1791712658","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-18534-1-4-in-hose-barb-x-compression-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
