Industrial Barbed Hose Fitting 3 inch NPT
The ZORO SELECT 3LZ98 is a steel barbed hose fitting built for low-pressure water suction and discharge service. It features a rigid, straight design with a 3-inch hose barb on one end and a 3-inch National Pipe Thread connection on the other. The fitting is rated for a maximum pressure of 100 psi and uses a 3-inch hex head for installation.
Sustained Pressure Performance
Under continuous operation the steel construction resists deformation at the 100 psi rating, maintaining a consistent seal on suction and discharge lines. The rigid straight profile prevents kinking that can restrict flow during extended pump cycles. The barb-to-NPT transition stays secure without the loosening seen on softer alloys under vibration.
Direct Replacement for Worn Steel Fittings
This fitting replaces a corroded or cracked 3-inch steel barb on water transfer assemblies where the original NPT threads are still intact. The jump is worth it when the old fitting leaks at the barb or the hex head rounds off during maintenance. It does not suit applications needing a swivel elbow or a smaller barb diameter.

Questions about this item
Will the steel fitting handle continuous 100 psi water discharge without leaking or overheating?
The barbed hose fitting is rated for a maximum pressure of 100 psi and constructed from steel for low-pressure water suction and discharge service.
Do I need a 3-inch hose and a matching 3-inch NPT pipe to install this fitting?
Yes, the fitting connects a 3-inch hose barb to a 3-inch NPT thread, so both a 3-inch ID hose and a 3-inch NPT pipe are required.
Will a standard adjustable wrench fit the 3-inch hex head on this steel fitting?
The fitting has a 3-inch hex head, so you need a wrench or socket that accommodates that exact size for installation or removal.
