Midland Industries 33006B 1/4 in Barb X 3/8 in Mip Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 33006B is a male adapter fitting that connects a 1/4 inch hose barb on one end to a 3/8 inch male iron pipe (MIP) thread on the other. Molded from polyethylene, the fitting is black in color and rated for a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi across a wide temperature range of -65 to 190 degrees F. It is a compact, lightweight fitting used to transition between barbed hose connections and threaded pipe systems in low-pressure fluid and air applications. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and general trade professionals install this type of adapter when routing flexible tubing into a threaded port.

The 33006B is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation lines, pneumatic tubing runs, and fluid transfer systems where a barbed-to-threaded transition is required. Its polyethylene construction resists corrosion and is compatible with water, certain chemicals, and low-pressure air service. The small profile and single-piece design make it practical for tight spaces or manifold assemblies where metal fittings are not needed or desired.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch hose barb inlet transitions to 3/8 inch MIP threaded outlet
• Rated to 125 psi maximum operating pressure
• Temperature range of -65 to 190 degrees F
• Polyethylene construction resists corrosion and chemical attack
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds - minimal load on fittings and tubing
• Compact dimensions suit confined or multi-port installation areas

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use adapter for low-pressure hose and pipe assemblies requiring a 1/4 inch barb to 3/8 inch MIP transition in polyethylene construction.

Installation Notes

Shut off the fluid or air supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape to the MIP threads per standard plumbing practice before making up the threaded joint. Seat the hose barb end with an appropriately sized hose clamp to prevent pull-off under pressure. Installation should comply with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC where required by jurisdiction.
