BSP Stainless Steel Male Thread Barb Hose Tail Connector — 1/8" to 2"

Match the thread size (e.g., 1/4" BSP) to your pipe or fitting port. For the tail diameter, measure the inner diameter of your hose — the barb tail should generally match or be slightly larger than the hose ID for a secure grip. For example, a 6mm (≈1/4") tail suits 6mm ID hose, while a 25mm (≈1") tail suits 25mm ID hose.

Stainless steel BSP barb fittings typically handle working pressures in the range of 150–300 PSI depending on size and hose type. Larger diameters generally have lower pressure ratings. Always confirm the rated pressure for your specific application before installation.

Yes. Stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to rust, oxidation, and salt-air corrosion, making these fittings generally suitable for outdoor, marine, and humid environments. For highly aggressive chemical environments, confirm material compatibility before use.

These fittings use BSP (British Standard Pipe) male threads, which are widely used in plumbing, hydraulics, and pneumatic systems globally. BSP threads are not directly compatible with NPT (National Pipe Thread) fittings without an adapter, so confirm your system's thread standard before ordering.

For liquid applications, applying PTFE thread seal tape to the male BSP threads is generally recommended to ensure a leak-free connection. For pneumatic or low-pressure air lines, PTFE tape is also advisable as a best practice.

These barb fittings are compatible with flexible hoses including PVC, rubber, silicone, and polyurethane tubing. For secure retention, use a hose clamp over the barb tail, especially in higher-pressure or vibration-prone applications.

Stainless steel is generally resistant to many fuels, oils, and mild chemicals. However, compatibility depends on the specific fluid and concentration. Always verify chemical compatibility of both the fitting material and your hose before use in fuel or chemical transfer applications.
