Dixon Valve & Coupling BM6 Brass Hose Fitting, Mender, 3/4" Hose ID Barbed

This Dixon BM Series mender hose fitting is made of brass and is suitable for repairing a broken hose. This hose mender has barbed ends to create a tight seal on a hose when used with a hose clamp or crimp sleeve or ferrule (not included). It is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability. It is not recommended for compressible products such as air, nitrogen, or steam.

Hose fittings connect, control, change the direction of, and terminate the flow in piping and hose systems. They are made of brass, stainless steel, galvanized steel, and other materials that resist corrosion, pressure, and wear. Hose fittings have various types of connections, including threaded, barbed, push-to-connect, dry disconnect, and others including those based on internationally-accepted specifications. Hose fittings are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation.
