Brass Low-Pressure Barbed Tube Fittings for Air and Water
Made of brass, these fittings resist corrosion from water and are more durable than plastic and aluminum fittings. Use them for low-pressure HVAC systems, drain lines, and other fluid transfer applications, as well as air lines where water vapor and condensate form. The barbs tightly grip tubing for a secure hold. For the best grip, make sure your tubing is squarely cut.
NPT adapters require thread sealant (not included) for a leak-tight seal.
NPTF (Dryseal) fittings are compatible with NPT threads.
UN/UNF (SAE Straight) male threads with gasket provide extra protection against leaks. Also known as O-ring boss threads.

Aluminum Low-Pressure Barbed Tube Fittings for Air and Water
- For Use With: Air, Lubricated Air, Water
- Temperature Range: -40° to 230° F
- Tubing: Use with hard (Durometer 75A-60D) EVA plastic, polyethylene plastic, polyurethane rubber or PVDF plastic
Made of aluminum, these fittings are lighter in weight than other metal barbed tube fittings and have good corrosion resistance. The barb grips onto tubing, providing a secure hold with no clamp required.
Nickel-Plated Brass Low-Pressure Barbed Tube Fittings for Air and Water
The nickel plating on these brass fittings provides extra protection against corrosive environments. The plating won’t peel or chip, so the fittings keep a bright, polished appearance. The barbs grip onto tubing, providing a secure hold with no clamp required.
UN/UNF (SAE Straight) and BSPP male threads have an O-ring to protect against leaks. UN/UNF (SAE Straight) threads are also known as O-ring boss threads.
- Temperature Range: -20° to 160° F
- Tubing: Use with firm (Durometer 85A) polyurethane rubber
Fittings with intermittent swivel rotate 360° before and after installation as needed to allow movement in the system and to prevent kinking.
Inline tees are also known as branch tees.
