Midland Industries 33033W 1-1/2in Barb X Mip Nylon Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 33033W is a male adapter fitting that connects a 1-1/2-inch hose barb on one end to a 1-1/2-inch male iron pipe (MIP) thread on the other. Molded from nylon, this white fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi and handles temperatures from -40 to 200 degrees F. The barbed end accepts standard flexible hose and holds it securely with a hose clamp, while the 1-1/2-11-1/2 NPT threads make up a standard threaded connection to a female-threaded port or fitting. Plumbers, irrigation installers, and industrial maintenance technicians commonly install this type of adapter where a hose line must terminate at a threaded pipe fitting.

This adapter suits residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, pool and spa equipment, and fluid-transfer applications where nylon construction is appropriate. It is a good fit for systems carrying water or other compatible fluids within the rated pressure and temperature range. The nylon material resists corrosion and is lighter than brass or steel alternatives, making it a practical choice in low-pressure wet environments where metal fittings are not required.

Key Features

• 1-1/2-inch hose barb inlet accepts standard flexible hose with a hose clamp
• 1-1/2-11-1/2 NPT male thread mates to standard female pipe ports
• Rated to 125 psi maximum operating pressure
• Wide temperature range: -40 to 200 degrees F
• Nylon construction resists corrosion in wet service environments
• White finish for easy identification in mixed-fitting installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard nylon hose barb male adapter for use in plastic piping and hose assemblies requiring a 1-1/2-inch barb-to-MIP transition within the stated pressure and temperature limits.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by a plumber or irrigation technician. Depressurize and drain the system before making or breaking any threaded or barbed connections. Apply thread sealant tape to the male NPT threads before assembly and tighten by hand until snug, then wrench-tighten per standard practice for plastic fittings - avoid overtightening, which can crack nylon threads. Secure the hose to the barbed end with an appropriately sized hose clamp and inspect for leaks when the system is returned to service.
