These A2 stainless steel female thread x barb hose tail elbow connectors solve that problem across a wide range of pipe and hose combinations, letting you route lines cleanly around corners without extra adapters or clamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach connector pairs a female BSP threaded port with a ribbed barb tail sized to grip hose securely. The body is machined from A2 (304) stainless steel for corrosion resistance in wet and mildly aggressive environments. Thread sizes range from 1\/4\" BSP to 1-1\/4\" BSP; barb tail diameters span 8 mm (approx. 5\/16\") to 40 mm (approx. 1-9\/16\"), covering the most common hose bore sizes used in residential and light commercial work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical applications include garden and drip-irrigation manifolds where hose must turn at a wall fitting, coolant and fluid-transfer lines in workshops and light machinery, and domestic plumbing connections where copper or push-fit pipe meets flexible hose. The 90° elbow geometry is especially useful for under-sink installations, pump inlets, and any run where a straight tail would foul adjacent pipework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-compat\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"hdiy-compat-icon\"\u003e🔗\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits standard BSP female-threaded ports (1\/4\" to 1-1\/4\").
