Parker 1695HB-8-6 Barbed Hose Elbow 1/2 in Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 1695HB-8-6 is a brass elbow barbed hose fitting designed to connect a 1/2-inch inside diameter hose to a 9/16-18 SAE straight thread port. The elbow configuration allows for a directional change at the connection point, reducing strain on the hose and simplifying routing in tight spaces. Constructed from brass, this fitting features a beaded hose barb that grips the hose securely and resists pull-out under pressure. It is suited for use in fluid transfer, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems across HVAC, plumbing, and industrial applications. Rated for temperatures from -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F, this fitting handles the demands of both low- and mid-temperature service environments.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial installations where a hose-to-port transition with a directional elbow is required. The barb-to-SAE straight thread end connection makes it compatible with standard straight thread ports found on valves, pumps, manifolds, and equipment fittings. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters commonly install this type of fitting when connecting flexible hose runs to fixed ported components. The 0.5625-inch hex head allows for wrench tightening without damaging the fitting body.

Key Features

• Beaded hose barb design for secure hose retention and pull-out resistance
• Elbow configuration enables directional routing without hose bending stress
• 9/16-18 SAE straight thread for leak-resistant port connections
• Fits 1/2-inch inside diameter hose
• Brass construction resists corrosion in fluid and air service
• Rated from -40 degrees F to 160 degrees F continuous service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 1/2-inch inside diameter hose with 9/16-18 SAE straight thread ports in HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial fluid transfer applications.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or pipefitters. De-pressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any hose fittings. Use a wrench on the hex head to tighten the threaded end to the port; do not grip the barb body. Secure the hose to the barb with an appropriate clamp rated for the hose size and system pressure. Follow applicable plumbing and mechanical codes for your jurisdiction.
