This industrial-grade hose barb adapter is precision-machined from 304-grade stainless steel, providing a sanitary and high-strength connection between rigid 1/4" NPT ports and 3/8" flexible tubing. Featuring a 1/4" Male Pipe Thread (MPT) on one end and a 3/8" OD Hose Barb on the other, this fitting is the professional standard for connecting gas regulators, air manifolds, and beverage pumps. Its 304 stainless steel construction is entirely flavor-neutral and highly resistant to pitting, making it far superior to brass for applications involving CO2, nitrogen, or acidic soda syrups.
- Material: Food-Grade 304 Stainless Steel
- Inlet/Outlet: 1/4" Male Pipe Thread (MPT) x 3/8" OD Hose Barb
- Durability: Corrosion-proof finish designed for high-moisture walk-in coolers
- Safety: Lead-free construction; safe for potable water and beverage dispensing
- Application: Ideal for secondary gas regulators, pump inlets, and water filtration manifolds
- Compatibility: Standardized NPT threads for universal fitment into commercial draught equipment
- Quality: Industrial-grade finish withstands high-pressure usage and frequent cleaning cycles
Technician's Note: This is a common "step-up" fitting used when you need to run a larger 3/8" gas or liquid line from a standard 1/4" regulator port. When installing the 1/4" MPT side, we recommend 2–3 wraps of PTFE thread tape to ensure a gas-tight seal. For the 3/8" barb, use a 15.7mm Oetiker Stepless Clamp to prevent leaks under high-pressure surges. Unlike plated brass, this 304 stainless steel fitting won't flake or tarnish, ensuring your draught system remains sanitary and professional-looking for years.
