Molded from white nylon, this fitting is rated for working pressures up to 125 psi and handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F. It carries FDA Compliant and NSF\/ANSI 51 certifications, making it appropriate for food-equipment and potable-water applications. The barbed end accepts tubing with a 0.31-inch outside diameter, and the 1.73-inch overall length keeps the installed footprint compact in tight plumbing runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, food-service equipment, water filtration systems, and ice-maker supply lines where a secure push-and-barb connection to NPT-threaded ports is required. It is also found in HVAC condensate drain assemblies and pool or spa chemical feed systems that use flexible tubing. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and food-equipment service technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-barb design grips 1\/4-inch ID flexible tubing securely without clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch NPT male thread for direct connection to standard pipe fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon construction resists corrosion and is compatible with water-based media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 125 psi working pressure for reliable service in pressurized lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFDA Compliant and NSF\/ANSI 51 certified for food-zone and potable-water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide temperature range of -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F suits hot and cold applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1\/4-inch ID flexible tubing terminating at a 1\/2-inch NPT threaded port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician following IPC or applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads and hand-tighten before using a wrench to snug the connection — do not overtighten nylon fittings, as the threads can crack. Push tubing fully onto the barb until it seats against the fitting shoulder for a leak-free joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Barbs\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Inside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\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\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F (93.3 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.73 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: FDA Compliant, NSF\/ANSI 51\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 325HB-4-8N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539077267762,"sku":"325HB-4-8N","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/50dadbf76968dbb5004ea12dfa3b1121_00c22d42-329c-4524-9e5d-f2c577fa4be3.jpg?v=1785834507","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-325hb-4-8n-barbed-tube-male-connector-1-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
