DR Brass Hose Barb – Male BSPT Thread x Tail
The DR Brass Hose Barb – Male BSPT Thread x Tail is a highly versatile and essential fitting designed to offer a secure connection in various piping systems. With its robust construction and precise engineering, this component is critical for ensuring efficient fluid management in both industrial and domestic settings.
Design and Functionality
Constructed to meet the highest standards of durability and performance, the DR Brass Hose Barb features a unique design with ridges at one end to firmly grip the inside diameter of a flexible hose or tube. This design ensures that when a hose is installed and clamped down over the tail, it expands and tightly grips the barb. As the hose attempts to relax back to its original diameter, a secure and leak-proof seal is formed, ideal for various applications, from agricultural to industrial uses.
The fitting’s male BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threaded end facilitates seamless connection to valves, pumps, or other fixtures, enhancing its utility in complex plumbing systems.
