Midland Industries 29S-8 Brass Hose Splicer 1/2 in Barb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 29S-8 is a straight brass hose-to-hose splicer designed to join two hose barb connections of equal size. It features a 1/2-inch hose barb on each end and is built from brass for corrosion resistance and long service life in fluid-handling systems. Rated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure and tested across a temperature range of -40 to 160 degrees F, this fitting handles the demands of both low- and moderate-pressure lines. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and irrigation or fluid-transfer specialists are the typical installers.

The 29S-8 is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable inline splice is needed on a 1/2-inch hose barb assembly. Common install scenarios include water supply lines, coolant circuits, and fluid-transfer systems where two hose ends must be coupled without fittings of differing size or type. The fitting is designed for use with hose barb clamps, similar-style clamps, or crimped ferrules to achieve a secure, leak-free connection.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/2-inch hose barb assemblies secured by hose barb clamps, similar-type clamps, or crimped ferrules in fluid-handling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes. Depressurize and drain the line fully before removing any existing fitting or inserting this splicer. Seat the hose fully over each barb and secure with an appropriately rated clamp or crimped ferrule to ensure a leak-free connection. Verify the assembled joint does not exceed the 150 psi pressure rating of this fitting.
