Value Collection 2750001230 Barbed Hose Male Connector Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2750001230 is a barbed push-on hose male connector designed for low-pressure fluid and air line assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial maintenance applications. Constructed from brass, this fitting features a 1/8 inch NPTF male thread on one end and a barbed stem sized for hose with a 1/4 inch inside diameter on the other. The NPTF thread form creates a dry-seal mechanical connection that resists leakage without relying solely on thread sealant. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals use fittings of this type when routing flexible hose to threaded ports on equipment, valves, and manifolds.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a flexible hose must terminate at a fixed threaded port. Typical scenarios include condensate drain lines, low-pressure air supply tubing, fuel lines, and fluid transfer assemblies. The barbed end accepts push-on hose installation and is intended to be used with a clamp or crimp ring for secure retention under pressure. The 1/8 inch NPTF thread mates with standard female NPTF ports found on a wide range of equipment and valves. This item is sold in a package quantity of 5.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off the fluid or air supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPTF threads in accordance with the fitting manufacturer and local plumbing code requirements, and confirm the hose is fully seated over the barb before securing the clamp or crimp ring. Do not overtighten the threaded connection, as brass fittings can be damaged by excessive torque.
