The barb end grips flexible hose mechanically, while the female NPT thread mates to a standard male pipe fitting or manifold port. Rated for service from -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F, this fitting suits a wide range of fluid-transfer applications in HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial settings. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system installers use this style of fitting where a rigid-pipe run transitions to flexible hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 126HBL-8-6 is suited for residential and light commercial applications where 1\/2 inch ID flexible hose connects to a 3\/8 inch NPT female port. Typical install scenarios include condensate drain lines, chilled-water connections, hydronic system branch connections, and general-purpose fluid transfer lines operating within the rated temperature range. The brass construction makes it appropriate for water, air, and many common HVAC fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in water and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch NPT female thread for standard pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch ID hose barb with a 0.53 inch barb diameter for secure hose retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1.69 inches for compact installation in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.8125 inch hex head for wrench tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1\/2 inch ID flexible hose with a 3\/8 inch NPT threaded connection point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the NPT threads per IPC guidelines before making the threaded connection. Use a wrench on the hex head to achieve a firm, leak-free connection; do not overtighten, as brass threads can be damaged by excessive force. Secure the hose to the barb with an appropriately rated clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hose Barb x Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Inside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.53 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.53 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Head Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.69 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 degrees F (71.1 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F (-40 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 126HBL-8-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539403309362,"sku":"126HBL-8-6","price":18.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a0a702a4ed452fa2d28c0ea38b2da01d.jpg?v=1785839330","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-126hbl-8-6-barbed-hose-fitting-3-8-npt-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
