Brass Hose Connector 12mm / 1/2-Inch Barb to GZ 3/8-Inch Male Thread
Brief Overview
This brass hose connector bridges pneumatic and hydraulic system components with a straightforward, reliable design. The barbed inlet accepts standard 12mm hose while the external male thread (GZ 3/8-inch) connects to threaded ports on compressors, valves, and manifolds. Built from solid brass for corrosion resistance and durability in both air and fluid applications, this connector delivers the dependable performance expected in professional shops and industrial settings.
For resellers stocking multiple thread sizes, consider pairing this with compatible brass connectors in alternate thread configurations or smaller-diameter barbed inlets to provide mechanics a complete range of connection options.
