  • Brass construction resists corrosion for long-lasting connections

  • Two-pack provides a spare for immediate replacement needs
  • California Proposition 65 warning indicates regulated chemical content

Brass Female Hose Barbs

These brass female hose barbs come as a two-pack for connecting flexible plastic or rubber tubing. The barb-like rings on each cylindrical piece grip the hose interior for a secure push-fit connection. They suit air compressor and vacuum pump setups where quick assembly matters. The parts are new and supplied directly by Midwest Fastener Corp.

1/2 inch by 1/4 FIP Thread Limit

The fitting combines a half-inch hose barb with a quarter-inch female iron pipe thread. This fixed thread size means the barbs only mate with matching male NPT fittings. Adapters are required for any other port diameter or thread standard. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the brass contains listed chemicals.

Two-Pack Capacity for Single Lines

The pair handles two separate hose runs or provides a spare for the same line. Each barb manages one connection point, so a single line with two ends uses the whole pack. Builders needing more than two barbed connections must buy additional packs. Orders of seventy-five dollars or more qualify for free shipping from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item

Which pack size should I select for this fitting?

The item is sold as a two-piece pack under part number 33687, so one order gives you two brass female hose barbs.

What does the 1/2" x 1/4 FIP sizing mean when I install it?

One end accepts 1/2 inch hose while the other end has 1/4 inch female iron pipe threads for connecting to a matching male fitting.

How does the NPT thread standard affect the seal on this barb?

The 1/4 inch female threads follow the NPT taper standard, so sealing requires thread tape or pipe compound to prevent leaks.
