It connects a 5\/16-inch hose barb on one end to a 1\/4-inch male NPTF thread on the other, making it a reliable transition point between flexible hose and threaded pipe. The NPTF thread is 1\/4-18, providing a pressure-tight mechanical seal without requiring additional sealant, though thread tape is commonly applied in the field. Rated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure and functional across a temperature range of -40 to 160 degrees F, this fitting suits demanding fluid and air transfer applications. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid system installers use this type of fitting when a directional change is needed at a hose-to-pipe interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is designed for use in low-pressure fluid, air, or gas transfer lines where flexible hose must transition to a threaded port at a 90-degree angle. It is compatible with standard hose clamps, similar clamp styles, or crimped ferrules for hose retention. Typical install scenarios include fuel lines, coolant lines, pneumatic systems, and general-purpose plumbing connections in both residential and light commercial settings. The compact body size of 0.58 inches makes it suitable for tight spaces where a bulkier fitting would be problematic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree elbow configuration routes hose at a right angle to a threaded port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-inch hose barb end accepts standard flexible hose with clamp or crimped ferrule retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 male NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight connection to female threaded ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction offers corrosion resistance for water, air, and compatible fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide operating temperature range of -40 to 160 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard flexible hose secured by hose clamps, similar type clamps, or crimped ferrules.

Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant tape to the NPTF threads before assembly and hand-tighten before using a wrench to avoid over-torquing, which can crack brass fittings. Secure the hose barb end with an appropriately sized hose clamp or crimped ferrule to maintain a leak-free connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (Hose Barb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches (Male NPTF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18 NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 to 160 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter to End\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.12 x 0.84 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.58 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.55 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.075 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Retention Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hose clamp, similar type clamp, or crimped ferrule\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: 32040B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950072201522,"sku":"32040B","price":19.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e7f084e7e3d2854661c9ffe5e54011e3_2ddf366a-ddc2-435c-b1e5-40442b96a36d.jpg?v=1791706285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-32040b-brass-90-deg-hose-barb-elbow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
