Value Collection 12346 Hose Adapter 3/4 X 1/2 in Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 12346 is a brass garden hose adapter designed to connect a female hose thread to a female pipe thread in a single fitting. It transitions between a 3/4-inch female hose thread and a 1/2-inch female pipe thread, making it a compact solution for hose-to-pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing and irrigation systems. The all-brass construction provides solid corrosion resistance and durability under normal outdoor and service conditions. This adapter is installed by plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced maintenance personnel wherever a hose bib or supply line requires a thread-size transition.

This adapter is suited for use in residential irrigation setups, outdoor hose connections, and light-duty plumbing applications where a standard garden hose thread must interface with a smaller female pipe thread. It is a single-piece, sold-individually fitting intended for straightforward in-line installations on potable water systems, irrigation manifolds, and equipment supply lines that use standard NPT and GHT thread standards.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and long service life in wet environments
• Female hose thread to female pipe thread configuration for hose-to-pipe transitions
• 3/4-inch female hose thread inlet and 1/2-inch female pipe thread outlet
• Compact single-piece adapter design with no additional hardware required
• Sold individually, no minimum multi-pack requirement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental fitting for residential and light commercial plumbing and irrigation systems that require a female hose thread to female pipe thread transition at 3/4 x 1/2-inch thread sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or irrigation technician. Shut off the water supply completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads mating with this adapter to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as excessive torque can crack the fitting body.
