Zoro Select 316 Stainless Steel Hose Barb

This fitting connects 1/4 inch inner diameter hose to a 1/4 inch male NPT thread. It is made from 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in bathware and general fluid applications. The straight barb design suits simple inline plumbing tasks.

Build quality and daily use

The 316 stainless steel body resists rust and chemical attack in wet environments. A 9/16 inch hex head allows secure tightening with a standard wrench. Both ends are male, with a hose barb on one side and an NPT thread on the other. The fitting is reusable and rated for temperatures from -30 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit.

Check before ordering

Verify that your hose has a 1/4 inch inner diameter to match the barb size. Confirm the mating port uses a 1/4 inch female NPT thread for a proper seal. Ensure the operating temperature and pressure stay within the stated limits. This fitting is not rated for vacuum service.

Questions about this item

What does the 1/4 in NPT connection limit in practice?

The 1/4 in NPT male thread caps the maximum flow to the fitting's 1/4 in barb bore and the 1/4 in hose inner diameter it accepts.

What clearance does the 9/16 in hex head need to mount?

A 9/16 in wrench flat requires at least that much clearance around the hex to tighten the fitting onto a 1/4 in NPT female port.

How is the barb installed, and what step is often missed?

Slide the 1/4 in ID hose over the barb, secure it with a clamp, then thread the NPT end into the port using thread sealant on the male threads.
