Constructed from brass, this adapter provides reliable, corrosion-resistant performance in low-pressure water supply and irrigation applications. The 1.06-inch hex body allows for secure wrench engagement during installation. With a maximum operating pressure of 75 psi and an operating temperature range of 35 to 100 degrees F, this fitting is suited for seasonal and permanent outdoor plumbing connections. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced DIYers handle this type of fitting regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used in residential and light commercial applications where a garden hose barbed connection must transition to a standard 3\/4-inch male garden hose thread. Typical install scenarios include connecting flexible hose assemblies to hose bibs, irrigation manifolds, or outdoor water distribution equipment. The short shank profile keeps the assembly compact, making it useful in tight or recessed connection points. The 3\/4-11-1\/2 thread specification conforms to standard garden hose thread (GHT) sizing, ensuring broad fitment across common hose hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in outdoor water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch garden hose barbed inlet accepts standard flexible hose for a secure barbed grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch male garden hose thread (MGH) outlet with 3\/4-11-1\/2 thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.06-inch hex body for wrench-assisted tightening and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 75 psi maximum operating pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort shank design keeps overall assembly length compact at 1.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for residential and light commercial garden hose assemblies using standard 3\/4-11-1\/2 GHT connections and 5\/8-inch barbed hose ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before making or breaking any fitting connection.
