Brass Hose Barb 1/2 in FNPT
The Value Brand 6AFN0 is a straight brass hose barb designed for low-pressure pneumatic and water lines. It connects a 1/2 inch hose barb to a 1/2 inch FNPT thread using C37700 grade brass construction. This fitting suits industrial and workshop fluid-transfer needs where a barbed connection is required.
Verify Thread and Hose Compatibility
Confirm your existing port accepts a 1/2 inch FNPT thread before ordering. Ensure the hose you plan to use has a matching 1/2 inch inner diameter for the barb. A crimped ferrule or hose clamp is required to secure the hose onto the barb, so have the appropriate clamp or crimping tool available for installation.
Brass Build and Hex Installation
The C37700 brass body resists corrosion in water and compressed-air service. A 1 inch hex head provides a solid wrench surface for tightening the FNPT end without damaging the fitting. The straight profile keeps flow paths direct, while the barbed tail grips the hose interior when clamped, creating a reliable seal for daily workshop use.
