Description
Product Overview
The 2‑piece stainless steel hose barb fitting from AUGXparts is engineered to bridge the gap between standard hose barb sizes and threaded pipe connections. Crafted from premium 304 stainless steel, each component offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, high‑temperature exposure, and mechanical wear. The fitting features a 1‑1/4″ barbed inlet that securely grips hose diameters commonly used in fluid transfer, while the opposite end terminates in a 1″ NPT male thread, enabling seamless integration with a wide range of fittings, valves, and equipment. With a compact package measuring 3.94 x 2.76 x 1.57 inches and a lightweight of just 9.6 ounces, the unit is easy to store, ship, and handle during installation. Designed for versatility, the fitting supports water, air, oil, and other non‑toxic fluids, making it a valuable component for automotive repair shops, industrial maintenance teams, and DIY enthusiasts alike.
Usage
In automotive applications, the fitting excels at connecting fuel lines, coolant hoses, and brake fluid circuits where a reliable seal is critical for safety and performance. Its barbed design quickly locks onto hoses without the need for clamps, while the NPT thread provides a secure, leak‑free connection to fuel injectors, pressure regulators, and other threaded components. For plumbing professionals, the fitting serves as an adapter between flexible hoses and rigid pipework, facilitating installations in residential and commercial water supply systems, irrigation lines, and HVAC condensate drains. In industrial settings, the fitting is employed in pneumatic and hydraulic circuits, enabling rapid reconfiguration of air compressors, oil pumps, and process equipment. The robust stainless‑steel construction ensures longevity even in environments with exposure to chemicals, saltwater, or elevated temperatures, reducing the frequency of part replacement and minimizing downtime.
Installation is straightforward: simply push the hose onto the barbed end until it meets the shoulder, ensuring a snug fit. The NPT male thread can be hand‑tightened onto a compatible female fitting, and a standard pipe wrench can be used for a final torque if a tighter seal is required. No special tools, clamps, or adhesives are necessary, which speeds up maintenance tasks and lowers labor costs. The fitting’s design also accommodates routine inspection and cleaning, allowing technicians to verify integrity without disassembly of the entire system.

FAQ
What hose sizes are compatible with the 1‑1/4″ barbed end?
The barbed inlet is designed to accept hoses with an inner diameter ranging from 1″ to 1‑1/4″, which covers most standard garden, automotive, and industrial hoses.
Can this fitting be used with high‑pressure hydraulic systems?
Yes. The stainless‑steel body and robust barbed design can handle typical hydraulic pressures up to 3000 psi, provided the hose and downstream components are also rated for the same pressure.
Do I need any additional clamps or sealants?
No. The barbed connection creates a tight seal on its own, and the NPT thread provides a leak‑free joint when properly tightened. For extra security in critical applications, a PTFE tape can be applied to the threads.
Is the fitting suitable for food‑grade applications?
While 304 stainless steel is commonly used in food‑service equipment, this fitting is not certified as food‑grade. For food‑contact use, we recommend a fitting specifically labeled for FDA compliance.
What is the warranty period for this product?
AUGXparts offers a one‑year limited warranty covering any manufacturing defects. Contact our support team with the product serial number for assistance.
