Value Collection 2750001430 Barbed Hose Male Connector Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2750001430 is a barbed push-on hose male connector designed for fluid transfer applications in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial service work. Machined from brass, this fitting features a 1/4 inch NPTF threaded male end and a barbed shank sized for a 1/4 inch inside diameter hose. The NPTF thread form creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal without requiring sealant tape in many applications, though thread sealant is still common practice. This connector ships in a package quantity of five, making it practical for shops and service fleets that work through fittings regularly. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance mechanics are the typical installers.

This fitting is suited for low-pressure fluid and air lines where a push-on or clamp-retained hose connection to a male-threaded port is required. Typical applications include equipment fittings, pneumatic lines, coolant loops, and general-purpose fluid distribution in both residential and light commercial settings. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance compatible with water, air, and a broad range of non-aggressive media. Its compact profile fits in tight equipment compartments where larger fittings would interfere.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch NPTF male thread for pressure-tight port connections
• Barbed shank retains push-on hose without a separate ferrule in many low-pressure uses
• Brass construction resists corrosion in water and air service
• Compact dimensions suit confined installation spaces
• Sold in a 5-piece package for shop stock or fleet service kits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 1/4 inch inside diameter push-on hose terminated at a 1/4 inch NPTF male threaded port.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified HVAC and mechanical technicians. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the NPTF threads per the system manufacturer and applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines. Seat the hose fully over the barb and secure with a compatible hose clamp where system pressure or vibration requires it.
