Discover our comprehensive range of nylon barbed fittings, engineered for secure, leak-resistant hose connections across a wide variety of fluid-handling applications. Crafted from high-quality nylon, these fittings offer excellent strength, chemical resistance, and durability - making them ideal for pneumatic systems, water supply lines, fuel lines, and more.
Why Choose Nylon Barbed Fittings?
Reliable Hold: Barbed profiles grip the internal bore of flexible tubing securely, reducing the risk of blow-offs under pressure or vibration.
Versatility: Available in both BSPP and BSPT thread options, these fittings easily integrate into existing pipework systems.
Range of Sizes: Offered in sizes from 1/8″ to 3/4″, they suit both small- and medium-bore hose assemblies.
Lightweight Yet Durable: Nylon provides a good balance of strength, corrosion resistance and cost-efficiency compared to metal alternatives.
Trusted Manufacturer: Many of the components carry the Tefen mark, ensuring production under rigorous quality standards.

Tips for Use
Choose the correct hose inner diameter (ID) to match the barb size for optimal grip.
Use clamps or crimps for additional security under high pressure or vibration.
Check compatibility: While nylon is generally resistant, always confirm it suits your fluid and environmental conditions.
Avoid over-tightening threaded joints to prevent damage or stress cracking.
