Parker 364HB-8N Barbed Tube Union Tee 1/2 Inch Nylon

Product Description

The PARKER 364HB-8N is a single-barb nylon union tee fitting designed for joining three runs of flexible tubing at a common junction. It accepts 1/2 inch inside diameter tubing across all three ports, with a tube outside diameter of 0.56 inches per port. Molded from white nylon, the fitting is rated for working pressures up to 125 psi and a maximum continuous temperature of 200 degrees F. It carries FDA compliance and meets NSF/ANSI 51 certification, making it appropriate for applications where food-zone or potable-contact material standards apply. Licensed plumbers and irrigation or fluid-system technicians are the typical installers.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial fluid distribution systems where flexible tubing must be split or joined at a tee point. Common applications include drinking water systems, food-processing equipment, beverage dispensing lines, and other sanitary fluid circuits that require NSF/ANSI 51 compliant materials. The single-barb design on each port provides a secure push-on grip when paired with compatible flexible tubing and appropriate clamps or cinch rings. The fitting handles temperature ranges from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, covering most indoor and light-duty outdoor service conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as a push-on barbed union tee for flexible tubing with a 1/2 inch inside diameter and approximately 0.56 inch outside diameter in sanitary, potable, or food-grade fluid systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or qualified fluid-system technicians. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before cutting into any existing tubing run. Seat the tubing firmly over each barb until it contacts the fitting shoulder, then secure with appropriately sized clamps or cinch rings to prevent pull-off under pressure. Verify that all tubing material and any clamps used are also compliant with the applicable sanitary or food-contact standards required by the installation.
