Metal hose fittings have better durability than plastic barbed hose fittings.

Fittings have sharp barbs that grip push-on hose with no clamps or ferrules required. The more you pull on the fittings, the tighter the hose will grip. Use in low-pressure hydraulic applications up to 350 psi.

The nickel plating on these fittings provides better corrosion resistance than unplated brass fittings.

You don't need a clamp to secure these fittings to tubing. They have a nut on the barbed end that tightens to hold the tubing in place.
