Brass 45° elbow for pneumatic lines

The Zoro Select 6AFR5 is a brass hose barb that joins 3/8 inch hose to a 1/4 inch male NPT thread. Its 45 degree bend redirects flow in tight routing situations. The rigid brass body resists corrosion and holds alignment without movement. It is intended for low-pressure air or water systems.

Rated 300 psi with no shut-off

The fitting handles up to 300 psi in ordinary service and contains no valve to stop flow. Brass construction conducts heat away from the joint but adds no active cooling. No moving parts means no mechanical noise during operation. The elbow simply redirects pressurised media without restricting it.

California Proposition 65 notice included

Documentation flags the presence of a chemical known to California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. No software, clamps or sealant are supplied with the barb. Installers must provide thread sealant and hose clamps separately. The barbed end grips hose directly once secured.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 45 degree brass elbow onto a 3/8 inch hose and 1/4 MNPT port without leaking?

Slide the hose over the 3/8 barb and secure it with a clamp, then thread the 1/4 MNPT end into the port using thread sealant on the tapered threads; the 45 degree angle helps routing but do not overtighten the brass fitting.

What maintenance or replacement will this brass hose barb need over time?

Inspect the barb and threads periodically for corrosion, cracks or deformation; replace the fitting if the brass shows green deposits, the hose slips off the barb, or threads no longer seal at 300 psi.

What is the first limit reached under sustained pressure use?

The 300 psi maximum pressure rating is the primary limit; sustained operation above this pressure can cause the brass fitting to leak or fail.
