Hose barbs for air systems
These nylon hose barbs connect 3/16 inch flexible tubing to 1/8 inch male pipe threads. The eight-pack suits DIY mechanics and small-shop technicians who need quick, tool-free connections on compressors or vacuum lines.
Push-fit installation details
Barbed rings grip the tubing when it is pushed on, creating a seal without clamps or adhesive. The plastic threads can strip if over-tightened, so hand-tighten only and avoid metal wrenches.
Capacity and limits
Each barb handles low-pressure air and vacuum duty in hobby and light-industrial settings. They are not rated for high-pressure hydraulic systems, fuel lines or hot-water circuits.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the barbs seal properly after pushing tubing on?
Push the flexible-plastic or rubber tubing over the barb rings until it seats fully; the rings grip the tubing so it resists pulling off under normal system pressure.
What comes in the package and what must I supply?
The pack contains eight nylon plastic hose barbs with 3/16 inch hose end and 1/8 MIP threads; you must provide the tubing and any thread sealant or tape for the pipe connections.
Which version of this fitting should I choose for my airline?
Choose this 66481 model when you need a 3/16 inch hose barb with 1/8 MIP threads in a pack of eight; other sizes or thread types would require a different part number.
