Description

This Push-On Hose Barb (commonly referred to as a “Push-Lock” fitting) is designed to connect a 3/8″ ID flexible hose directly to a 1/4″ female pipe threaded port. It is an industry favorite for low-to-medium pressure applications where rapid installation, reduced leak points, and clean plumbing profiles are required.

Key Specifications

• Connection Type A: 3/8″ Push-On Hose Barb (Fits 3/8″ ID Push-On Hose)

• Connection Type B: 1/4″ MPT (Male Pipe Thread)

• Material: Forged Industrial-Grade Brass

• Design: Straight Adapter with Barbed Stem and Hose Stop Collar

Product Highlights

• Clamp-Free Assembly: When paired with a compatible specialty push-on hose (like Push-Lock or Lock-On hose), the specialized barb design creates a permanent, leak-proof seal entirely through mechanical friction—no hose clamps, ferrules, or crimping required.

• Dual-Purpose Stem Profile: Features specialized, shallow-angle barbs that allow a push-on hose to slide on smoothly but grip the inner liner aggressively under pressure, locking the line firmly into place.

• Integrated Hose Stop: Built with a distinct plastic or brass collar at the base of the threads, providing a clean visual stop for the hose end while protecting the hose edge from fraying.

• Solid Brass Durability: Forged from high-quality brass to resist mechanical stress, heavy vibrations, and temperature changes without cracking or breaking.

• Corrosion & Chemical Resilience: Naturally resistant to rust, mineral buildup, and standard chemical detergents or surfactants used daily in industrial and wash environments.
