This brass hose barb reducer connector is a singlepiece, straight twoway fitting designed to adapt hoses with different outer diameters. It connects a 14 mm outer diameter hose to an 8 mm outer diameter hose in a single, continuous flow path. Key benefits Simple size reduction: provides a straightforward way to connect a 14 mm OD hose to an 8 mm OD hose without additional adapters. Durable brass construction: corrosionresistant and long lasting in a variety of environments, including damp or outdoor applications. Secure, leakresistant grip: barbed ends create a strong hold on hose interiors when paired with appropriate clamps, helping minimize leaks at the connection. Reliable, onepiece design: eliminates potential failure points from multipart assemblies and simplifies installation. Versatile fit: suitable for general hose routing where different hose diameters must be joined in a straight run. Key attributes Material: Brass End configurations: Barbed ends for 14 mm OD hose and 8 mm OD hose Fitting type: Straight 2way pipe fitting; Barbed reducer connector Size compatibility: 14 mm outer diameter hose to 8 mm outer diameter hose Quantity: 1 piece per package Profile: Straight, singlepiece design for direct, inline connections Applications and use cases Garden irrigation: connect a larger 14 mm irrigation hose to a smaller 8 mm line to route water where needed. General fluid transfer: join hoses with different outer diameters in DIY projects or equipment setups where space is limited and a straight, inline connection is required. Small pneumatic or coolant lines: establish a tight, barbed connection between hoses of different sizes for lightweight air or liquid lines, using appropriate clamps to ensure a secure seal. Notes on installation Ensure hoses are clean and of debris before assembly. Insert hoses fully onto the barbs to maximize grip and reduce the risk of leaks. Use hose clamps compatible with the hose material and pressure requirements to secure the connection. This product aligns with standard brass hose barb reducer fittings, providing a straightforward solution for converting from 14 mm outer diameter hoses to 8 mm outer diameter hoses in a single, durable, and easytoinstall component.
