Midland Industries 73050 High Pressure Hose Stem

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 73050 is a high pressure hose stem fitting designed to connect a 3 inch tube OD to a 3 inch hose barbed end. This fitting serves as a male pipe stem and is used to create secure, leak-resistant connections in high pressure fluid or gas transfer lines. At 7.532 pounds, it is a substantial fitting built for demanding service environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial service technicians are the typical installers of this type of component in both commercial and industrial piping systems.

This hose stem is suited for universal and ground joint hose fitting applications where a rigid tube outside diameter connection on one end must transition to a barbed hose connection on the other. The 3 inch size on both connection points makes it appropriate for large-diameter fluid transfer runs in commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, and heavy-duty hose assembly work. It falls within the Male Pipe Stems Only (NPT) product category, indicating standard NPT-compatible thread or connection geometry.

Key Features

• 3 inch tube OD connection on one end for rigid pipe or tubing attachment
• 3 inch hose barbed connection on the other end for flexible hose attachment
• High pressure rating suitable for demanding fluid or gas transfer service
• Male pipe stem design in the NPT product category for broad system compatibility
• Substantial 7.532 pound construction indicating heavy-duty material mass

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for large-diameter high pressure hose stem applications within universal and ground joint hose fitting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber familiar with high pressure fitting assemblies. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any hose stem fitting. Verify that the hose barb end is fully seated and clamped with an appropriately rated clamp for the system pressure before returning the line to service. Follow applicable IPC or ASME piping standards for high pressure connection torque and assembly procedures.
