Brass Hose Barb for Pneumatic Systems
This Value Brand fitting connects a 1/4 in hose to a 3/8 in male NPT thread. The straight brass body is built for low-pressure air and water lines. The rigid design keeps the connection stable once installed. A hex size of 11/16 in allows standard wrench engagement.
Suits Builders Using Brass Barbed Fittings
Installers needing a permanent, non-reusable joint rated to 300 psi will find this part appropriate. The single barb grips compatible 1/4 in ID hose without additional clamps. Buyers who require a reusable or quick-disconnect coupling should consider a different style. Those needing other thread sizes or hose diameters must select another fitting.
300 psi Maximum Pressure Rating
The 300 psi limit defines the safe operating ceiling for this barb. Exceeding this pressure risks leaks or fitting failure in pneumatic or water circuits. Always verify that the system pressure stays within this boundary before installation. The brass construction resists corrosion within typical compressed-air environments.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum pressure this brass hose barb can handle before it becomes a limit?
The fitting is rated for a maximum working pressure of 300 psi, which is the upper end of its recommended operating range.
Does the brass construction or the 300 psi rating create noticeable heat or noise during continuous pneumatic use?
As a passive brass fitting with no moving parts, it generates no noise or heat of its own; any temperature rise comes from the compressed air passing through it.
Which wrench size must I already own to install the 11/16 in hex head on this fitting?
You will need an 11/16 in wrench or socket to tighten the hex head onto the 3/8 in male NPT thread.
