Midland Industries 33345W 90 Degree Elbow 3/4 Barb X 1/2 Fip Nylon

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 33345W is a 90-degree elbow hose barb fitting that transitions a 3/4-inch barbed hose connection to a 1/2-inch female iron pipe (FIP) threaded port. Molded from nylon in white, this fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi and a temperature range of -40 to 200 degrees F. It is used in low-pressure fluid transfer applications where a right-angle directional change is required between a flexible hose and a threaded pipe connection. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and irrigation or pool service professionals install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial systems.

This fitting suits applications involving water, coolant, or compatible low-pressure fluids routed through flexible hose into a threaded female port. Its 90-degree geometry makes it practical in tight spaces where a straight fitting would not clear adjacent components or structural elements. The 1/2-14 NPT thread on the FIP end conforms to standard pipe thread specifications. Typical install scenarios include condensate drain assemblies, water supply lines, and pool equipment plumbing where directional routing is needed.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow geometry for right-angle hose-to-pipe transitions in confined spaces
• 3/4-inch hose barb inlet secures flexible hose with a clamp for a leak-resistant connection
• 1/2-inch FIP (1/2-14 NPT thread) outlet connects directly to standard threaded pipe or fittings
• Nylon construction resists corrosion and is compatible with water and many common fluids
• Rated to 125 psi maximum operating pressure
• Wide service temperature range of -40 to 200 degrees F suits both cold and moderate-heat environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hose barb elbow for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate, irrigation, and pool system applications using 3/4-inch flexible hose and 1/2-inch female threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off the water supply or isolate the system before removing or installing any fitting. The FIP threaded end should be sealed with thread seal tape or pipe thread compound applied per standard plumbing practice and applicable IPC or local code requirements. Secure the hose barb end with an appropriate hose clamp rated for the operating pressure of the system.
