This straight hose barb fitting is an essential and highly stylish component for anyone building or customizing high-performance fuel systems and fluid transfer lines. The fitting is precision-machined from lightweight aluminum and subsequently anodized. This specialized treatment not only provides a brilliant, durable surface finish but also delivers excellent long-term resistance against corrosion and aggressive fuel types.

The tapered 1/4" NPT male thread ensures a strong and leak-free seal when threaded into fuel pumps, pressure regulators, or inline filter housings, while the deeply barbed end provides a highly secure, slip-free grip for any standard 8 mm (inner diameter) fuel hose.

Technical specifications:

• Material: Anodized Aluminum
• Thread (Male): 1/4" NPT
• Hose Barb (Outer Diameter): 8 mm
• Color Options: Available in Red, Blue, or Black (Selected upon ordering)

Workshop tip: When installing tapered NPT fittings into aluminum housings, we highly recommend using a liquid, fuel-resistant PTFE thread sealant to guarantee a completely leak-free connection without over-tightening. Avoid traditional Teflon tape, as fragments can easily enter the fuel system. Always remember to safely secure your fuel hose with a high-quality stainless steel hose clamp.
