Product Information

Full details

This Cost Wise Solid Brass Pipe Hosetail is designed for reliable fluid transfer in plumbing, pond, and irrigation applications. Its key benefit is durable, corrosion-resistant construction ensuring a secure connection for hoses up to 19mm. A potential caveat is the specific BSP thread size, requiring careful compatibility checks.

FAQs

What type of hose clamp should I use with this hosetail?

A standard worm-drive hose clamp sized appropriately for the 19mm barb and your hose's outer diameter is recommended for a secure, leak-proof seal.

Can this fitting be used with potable water systems?

Solid brass is generally safe for potable water, but always confirm local regulations and ensure the fitting is rated for drinking water if required.

What is the difference between BSP and NPT threads?

BSP (British Standard Pipe) and NPT (National Pipe Thread) are different thread standards. This fitting uses BSP, which has a different thread angle and pitch than NPT. They are not interchangeable.

How do I know if my hose is compatible with the 19mm barb?

The 19mm refers to the *inner diameter* the barb is designed to fit. Your hose should have an inner diameter that matches or is very close to 19mm for a secure fit.

Is this fitting suitable for high-pressure applications?

While durable, this fitting is designed for typical garden hose and low-to-medium pressure fluid transfer. For high-pressure industrial applications, consult specifications for pressure ratings.

Does the brass tarnish over time?

Solid brass can develop a patina or tarnish over time due to oxidation, especially in outdoor or humid conditions. This is a natural process and does not typically affect the functional integrity of the fitting.

Troubleshooting

Hose leaks at the barb connection.

Ensure the hose is fully seated on the barb and the hose clamp is tightened securely. Check that the hose is the correct size for the 19mm barb and is not degraded. Replace the hose or clamp if necessary.

Difficulty screwing the fitting into the female thread.

Verify that you are using a compatible 3/4" BSP female thread. Ensure the threads are clean and free of debris. Do not force the connection; check for cross-threading.

Fitting appears corroded or discolored.

While solid brass is resistant, prolonged exposure to certain environments can cause surface discoloration. Clean gently with a soft cloth. If deep corrosion is present, the fitting may need replacement, especially if performance is affected.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable and long-lasting due to solid brass material.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for wet environments.
  • Provides a secure and leak-resistant hose connection when properly clamped.
  • Resistant to UV and weather, making it ideal for outdoor use.

Cons

  • Specific BSP thread size (3/4") requires careful verification for compatibility.
  • Barb connection requires a hose clamp for a secure fit, which is often sold separately.
  • Brass can be heavier than plastic alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, screw the 3/4" BSP male thread onto a compatible female BSP fitting. Select a hose that fits snugly onto the 19mm barb. Slide a hose clamp over the hose, position it over the barb, and tighten securely. Ensure all connections are firm to prevent leaks.

Compatibility: This hosetail features a 19mm barb suitable for hoses with an inner diameter of approximately 19mm. The thread is a 3/4" BSP male thread (approx. 26.4mm outer diameter). Always verify your existing fittings and hose sizes match these specifications before purchase. It is compatible with other Cost Wise brass fittings and standard BSP threaded components.

Care: Clean the hosetail periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the brass surface. While brass is corrosion-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or highly acidic/alkaline water may eventually affect its appearance.
