GROCO 1-1/4"" NPT x 1-1/4" ID Stainless Steel Pipe to Hose Straight Fitting

The GROCO 1-1/4" NPT x 1-1/4" ID Stainless Steel Pipe to Hose Straight Fitting is engineered for demanding marine, industrial, and plumbing applications where corrosion resistance and dependable fluid transfer are non-negotiable. This male NPT to hose barb connector bridges rigid pipe systems to flexible hose lines, making it an essential component for custom water systems, fuel distribution, and pressurized fluid handling. Whether you're building a marine sanitation system, upgrading galley water lines, or connecting industrial equipment, this fitting provides the connection integrity professionals expect.

Manufactured from #316 stainless steel, this fitting delivers superior corrosion resistance compared to brass or standard stainless grades, particularly in saltwater and chemically aggressive environments. The straight design eliminates directional complications during installation, while the 1-1/4" NPT male thread provides a pressure-tight connection to pipe systems. The 1-1/4" hose barb ID accommodates standard 1-1/4" ID hose, with the barbed design ensuring mechanical grip without relying solely on hose clamps. NSF-61 compliance certification confirms its suitability for potable water applications, meeting stringent health and safety standards for drinking water systems.

Professionals select this fitting for marine heads, freshwater systems, saltwater washdown equipment, and industrial fluid transfer where standard materials fail prematurely. Installation requires a secure hose clamp on the barb end and thread sealant tape or pipe dope on the NPT end to prevent leakage. Weighing 0.6 lbs and compact in design, it integrates seamlessly into space-constrained installations on vessels, RVs, and industrial platforms. Standard flow rating ensures no velocity restrictions across typical system pressures, making it compatible with both gravity-fed and pump-driven applications.
