Midland Industries HE62-6 Hose End Union 3/8 in Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES HE62-6 is a brass hose end union designed for air brake hose repair and assembly applications. This fitting connects two hose ends of equal diameter using a hose barbed interface on each side, creating a secure, inline union without the need for additional adapters. Both connection ports measure 3/8 in and accept standard hose barb fittings, making installation straightforward for technicians working in fleet maintenance, heavy truck service, and commercial vehicle brake system repair. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability under the pressure cycling common to air brake systems.

This fitting is suited for use in air brake hose assemblies on commercial trucks, trailers, and heavy equipment. It is commonly installed when splicing or repairing damaged air brake hose runs or when extending existing lines. The hose barb design requires appropriate hose clamps or crimp ferrules to complete a secure connection. This part falls within the MAF/USA Brass Fittings line under the Air Brake section and is classified as a hose end mender.
