Machined from brass, this fitting handles fluid and gas transfer applications where a secure, leak-resistant transition between flexible hose and threaded pipe is required. It measures 1.66 inches in length with a 0.93-inch hex for wrench engagement, and it is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi across a temperature range of -40 to 160 degrees F. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals install this type of fitting in low-pressure hose assemblies where NPTF thread sealing is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-handling systems where flexible hose must terminate at a female NPT port. The hose barb end accepts hose secured with a hose clamp, a similar-type clamp, or a crimped ferrule, making it compatible with a range of hose retention methods used in field installations. Its compact dimensions and brass construction make it a practical choice for tight-clearance installations in mechanical rooms, equipment skids, and utility spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch hose barb inlet transitions to 1\/2-inch female NPTF outlet for reliable hose-to-pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for water, air, and compatible fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 psi maximum operating pressure rating for low-pressure hose assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -40 to 160 degrees F covers a wide range of service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.93-inch hex allows standard wrench installation without slipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with hose clamp, similar-type clamp, or crimped ferrule retention methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with flexible hose secured by a hose clamp, similar-type clamp, or a crimped ferrule, terminating at a 1\/2-inch female NPTF threaded port in low-pressure fluid or air systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off the fluid or air supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing any fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPTF threads mating to this fitting per the system requirements. Secure the hose barb end with the appropriate clamp or ferrule to the manufacturer-specified retention method before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (Hose Barb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (Female NPTF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.66 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.93 inches\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.085 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 32441\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952883990834,"sku":"32441","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3176c6861c08abe293c47101cfbbabb8_9ae2f6f1-ed93-4c26-b11b-f759071ec22e.jpg?v=1791754065","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-32441-brass-rigid-female-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
