Midland Industries 30517 Straight Coupling Set Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 30517 is a straight coupling set designed to connect garden hose lines using a 5/8 inch hose barbed inlet and a 5/8 inch female garden hose (FGH) outlet. Constructed from rod brass, this two-piece coupling set provides a durable, corrosion-resistant connection point for temporary or permanent hose runs. The 2 inch shank length gives the barbed end sufficient grip depth for secure hose attachment. Rated for use between 35 and 100 degrees F, this fitting is suited for seasonal irrigation, wash-down, and general water transfer applications. Plumbers and irrigation technicians install this type of fitting during hose bib extensions, equipment connections, and outdoor water supply setups.

This straight coupling set is intended for garden hose systems operating within standard residential and light commercial water supply environments. The FGH thread end accepts standard garden hose fittings, making it a straightforward field repair or assembly component. It is well-suited for connecting hose to threaded spigots, valves, or equipment ports where a barbed-to-FGH transition is required.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by plumbers or irrigation technicians working on garden hose supply lines. Shut off the water supply before disassembling any hose connections. Secure the barbed end into the hose with an appropriate clamp to prevent blow-off under pressure. Inspect threads before assembly and ensure FGH connections are hand-tight before applying tools to avoid thread damage.
