Vetus hose barb with external thread G1/4"

Reliable hose connection for continuous use on board: This Vetus brass hose barb securely connects an 8mm hose to a G-1/4 external thread. Brass has proven itself for decades as a corrosion-resistant material in the marine environment – exactly what you need for saltwater applications.

For continuous use in saltwater, Vetus explicitly recommends the use of brass fittings – this barb is designed precisely for that. When screwing it in, use a suitable sealant or PTFE tape to ensure a permanently tight connection.
