Barbed steam hose fitting connects 1/2 in hose to NPT threads using zinc-plated steel construction for air, water, petroleum, chemical and steam media

  • Durable zinc-plated steel resists corrosion in harsh environments

  • 1/2 inch barb fits standard hose inner diameter precisely
  • Q235 A3 steel grade provides structural strength under pressure
  • Compatible with air, water, petroleum, chemical and steam media

1/2 in NPT Barbed Steam Hose Fitting

This ZORO SELECT 3LZ70 fitting connects a 1/2 in hose barb to a 1/2 in NPT thread. It is built from Q235 A3 grade steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The design suits industrial and commercial systems carrying air, water, fluid petroleum, chemicals, or steam media. Installers needing a durable push-on connection for 1/2 in inner diameter hose will find it compatible.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The steel construction and zinc plating are designed to withstand the temperature and pressure demands of continuous steam service. The barbed hose end grips the inner diameter securely to resist blow-off under constant system pressure. The NPT thread seals reliably when properly tightened with thread sealant. The Q235 A3 material grade maintains structural integrity during prolonged exposure to the listed media types.

Setup Checks Before Ordering

Verify that your hose has a 1/2 in inner diameter to match the barb size. Confirm the mating port uses a 1/2 in NPT thread, noted as specification 46024. Ensure the media in your system is compatible with steel and zinc plating. Check that you have appropriate thread sealant for the NPT connection. Orders of $75 or more from this supplier ship free.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the ZORO SELECT 3LZ70 generate during continuous steam service?

The steel body with Q235 A3 grade and zinc-plated finish conducts heat from the media; it produces no heat of its own.

What hose and thread tools are needed to install the 1/2 in barb and NPT ends?

A 1/2 in ID push-on hose plus clamps or crimp ferrules for the barb, and a wrench with thread sealant for the 1/2 in NPT male thread.

Will the 46024 NPT thread mate with older iron pipe fittings in my shop?

Yes — the NPT thread follows the standard taper, so it seals against legacy iron or steel pipe threads when proper sealant is applied.
