Parker 364HB-6PP Barbed Tube Union Tee 3/8 Inch Single Barb

Product Description

The PARKER 364HB-6PP is a single-barb tube union tee fitting designed for low-pressure fluid transfer applications in food service, laboratory, and industrial tubing systems. Molded from black polypropylene, this union tee connects three lines of tubing with a 3/8-inch barb size and accepts tubing with a 3/8-inch inside diameter and a 0.43-inch outside diameter. It carries a maximum working pressure of 125 psi and is rated for temperatures from 0 degrees F to 212 degrees F. The fitting meets FDA compliance and NSF/ANSI 51 certification, making it appropriate for use in food-equipment fluid circuits. Licensed plumbers and trade technicians install this fitting in tubing assemblies where a three-way barbed junction is required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications where flexible tubing must be branched at a single junction point. Typical uses include beverage dispensing equipment, water filtration systems, ice machine water lines, and similar fluid-handling assemblies that require a food-grade-compliant barbed tee. The polypropylene construction resists corrosion and is compatible with a range of non-aggressive water-based fluids. Its compact overall length of 2.22 inches makes it practical in tight equipment enclosures where space for fittings is limited.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or equipment service technicians working on tubing assemblies in food service or water-treatment equipment. Shut off and depressurize the fluid circuit before disconnecting or inserting any barbed fittings. Push tubing fully onto each barb and secure with an appropriate clamp to prevent pull-off under pressure. Follow applicable codes including IPC guidelines for potable water systems where NSF/ANSI 51 compliance is a requirement.
