Value Collection 1407-012 Barbed Tube Elbow 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1407-012 is a PVC barbed tube elbow designed for fluid transfer applications in plumbing, irrigation, and general industrial piping systems. The fitting features a 1-1/4 inch barbed end for secure hose or tubing connections and a 1-1/4 inch female iron pipe thread (FIPT) end for threaded pipe connections. Constructed from polyvinylchloride (PVC), this elbow provides corrosion resistance and is well-suited for low-pressure liquid service. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and maintenance professionals install this type of fitting when routing flexible tubing or hose into a threaded female port at a 90-degree change of direction.

This elbow is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, pool and spa plumbing, irrigation systems, and general fluid handling setups where a direction change is needed between a barbed hose or tubing run and a female-threaded pipe connection. The FIPT thread accepts standard NPT-compatible male threaded fittings, making it compatible with a wide range of PVC and metal pipe assemblies. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both new installation and retrofit applications where the existing barbed or threaded configuration matches.

Key Features

• 1-1/4 inch barb end securely grips compatible hose or tubing OD
• 1-1/4 inch FIPT (female iron pipe thread) end connects to standard NPT male fittings
• PVC construction offers corrosion resistance for water and mild fluid service
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows direction changes in tight plumbing runs
• Lightweight at 0.18 pounds, simplifying handling and installation in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1-1/4 inch barbed hose or tubing connections with 1-1/4 inch female NPT-threaded pipe ports in PVC piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling any existing plumbing. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male NPT fitting before threading into the FIPT end, and tighten to hand-tight plus approximately one to two turns using strap wrenches or pliers with jaw protection to avoid crushing the PVC body. Secure the barbed connection with an appropriate hose clamp rated for the service pressure of the application, and inspect for leaks before returning the system to service.
