Anderson Metals57001-0404 Brass Hose Fitting, Adapter, 1/4" Barb x 1/4" NPT Male Pipe

Good quality overall. Good threads.They fit well.

Works like it’s supposed to. Don’t know why it took 3 weeks to get from Illinois to Montana. I guess the Pony Express is still in business!

worked great, used it with a chuck on an air hose.

Over that past year I have ordered and used many different Anderson fittings. This is one of them. Without exception, I have found Anderson fittings to be top quality. No fitting has ever failed me. The threads have all been excellently cut and are well within specification for NPT design. When wrapped with PTFE and tightened properly (not over-tight..) they never leak. The barbed shank is longer than some others and holds tightly to hose. Once again, when clamped properly there will never be a leak. The hex shape on the exterior is perfect for use with a typical open-end wrench. Nicely machined and finished.There are just no faults with this fitting. Like every other Anderson product I have used (SO FAR..!!!) I can find nothing to complain about. Five stars...

As you would expect - properly cut pipe threads that are leak proof when assembled with ptfe pipe tape.I assembled the hose barb ends using a heat gun (hair dryer) on the tubing during cold weather. The barbed ends went together more easily than the other barbed fittings I used which were plastic.I had absolutely no leaks anywhere - first time - every time with this fitting - just the way I like it.I installed two or three sets on each side of ball valves if I remember correctly.

As advertised. Fair priced.

The air hose that came with my Ironman portable air compressor had overseas fittings on it, which are fairly useless if you want to attach any other standard air fittings to them - so cut those off, installed the barb fitting, a clamp, and a new SAE fitting -- boom, done.

I ran a short water line into an experimental apparatus.
