Value Collection 2750004840 Barbed Hose Fitting 1/4 in Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2750004840 is a brass male connector barbed hose fitting designed to create a secure, leak-resistant transition between a threaded port and a flexible hose line. The male NPT end threads directly into a female-threaded port, while the barbed end accepts 3/16 inch ID hose. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in both wet and dry service environments. This fitting is packaged in a quantity of 5, making it a practical choice for maintenance shops, service vans, and contractors who regularly work with small-diameter hose assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial fluid-transfer applications.

This fitting is suited for low- to medium-pressure fluid and air transfer applications where a 1/4 inch NPT male connection mates to 3/16 inch ID flexible hose. Typical use cases include equipment drain lines, compressed air distribution drops, fuel delivery lines, and coolant transfer assemblies in both residential and light commercial settings. The 5-piece pack supports stocking for service calls where multiple fittings may be needed in a single visit.

Key Features

• Brass construction resists corrosion in wet and fluid-transfer environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT barbed hose connector for use with 3/16 inch ID flexible hose in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid-transfer systems requiring a 1/4 inch NPT male threaded interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified mechanics. Shut off fluid or air supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to NPT threads in accordance with applicable plumbing codes before threading into the port. Secure the hose over the barb with an appropriate clamp to maintain a leak-free connection; do not over-tighten threaded connections, as brass can be damaged by excess torque.
