Value Collection 2750002430 Barbed Hose Male Connector Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2750002430 is a barbed push-on hose male connector designed for use in fluid transfer and hose assembly applications. Machined from brass, this fitting provides a reliable, corrosion-resistant connection between a hose and a threaded port. The male end carries a 1/2 inch NPTF thread for a pressure-tight seal without sealant tape in many applications, while the barbed end accepts a 3/8 inch inside diameter hose. This connector is commonly installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance trades working on water, air, or light fluid lines.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC auxiliary drain and water supply lines, and general fluid transfer assemblies where a push-on barbed connection is preferred for quick, secure hose attachment. The NPTF thread standard ensures a dry-seal fit against a compatible female port. Each package contains 5 connectors, making it practical for service vans and supply stock. It is appropriate for low-pressure water and air systems where brass fittings are specified.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch NPTF male thread for dry-seal, pressure-tight connections
• 3/8 inch inside diameter barbed end for secure push-on hose retention
• Brass construction resists corrosion in water and air service
• Push-on barb design eliminates the need for hose clamps in low-pressure applications
• Sold in a 5-piece package for stocking convenience

Compatibility

Designed as a standard barbed push-on male connector for use with 3/8 inch inside diameter flexible hose in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid transfer assemblies using 1/2 inch NPTF female threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off the water or air supply and relieve system pressure before connecting or disconnecting fittings. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal engagement, but confirm compatibility with system pressure and fluid type before assembly. Ensure the hose inside diameter matches the barb size to maintain a secure, leak-free connection.
