<h3>About Brass Fittings by Midland Industries</h3><p>When it comes to reliable fluid and gas transfer, the quality of your fittings matters as much as the quality of your pipe or hose. <strong>Brass Fittings</strong> — rooted in the Jamnagar manufacturing tradition and distributed through Midland Industries — represents a benchmark in precision-engineered connection hardware for industrial, automotive, plumbing, and outdoor equipment applications.</p><p>Jamnagar, India, has long been recognized as one of the world's premier centers for brass component manufacturing, and this brand draws on that deep metallurgical expertise. Using state-of-the-art CNC machinery and rigorous quality control practices, Brass Fittings produces components that meet demanding dimensional tolerances and pressure ratings across a wide range of thread standards — including NPT, NPTF, BSP, and metric — making them compatible with both domestic and international systems.</p><h3>A Comprehensive Fittings Lineup</h3><p>The core of the catalog is an extensive range of <a href="/7273-brass-fittings-pipe-fitting-17358">pipe fittings</a>, encompassing elbows, tees, unions, couplings, bushings, nipples, caps, and crosses in a variety of sizes and configurations. These are the workhorses of any plumbing, pneumatic, or hydraulic system — connecting runs of pipe securely while maintaining leak-free performance under pressure.</p><p>For applications where both pipe and hose connections are needed in the same system, the brand&apos;s <a href="/7273-brass-fittings-brass-bronze-pipe-hose-fittings-201742">brass and bronze pipe &amp; hose fittings</a> offer versatility and corrosion resistance in a single product family. Bronze alloys are particularly valued in marine, chemical, and high-humidity environments where dezincification resistance is critical. Whether you need hose barbs, flare fittings, compression fittings, or forged adapters, this lineup covers the full spectrum of connection styles.</p><p>Recognizing that not every application calls for metal, Brass Fittings also offers a selection of <a href="/7273-brass-fittings-nylon-pipe-hose-fittings-200724">nylon pipe &amp; hose fittings</a> designed for lighter-duty fluid transfer needs. Nylon fittings are a smart choice where chemical compatibility, weight savings, or electrical non-conductivity are priorities — common requirements in automotive fuel systems, agricultural equipment, and marine auxiliary systems.</p><h3>Why Choose Brass Fittings?</h3><ul><li><strong>Material quality:</strong> Free-cutting brass alloys (such as IS 319 / C36000) are used throughout, delivering excellent machinability and long service life.</li><li><strong>Wide thread compatibility:</strong> NPT, NPTF, BSP, metric, and other thread forms are available to suit virtually any system.</li><li><strong>Broad application range:</strong> Suitable for water, gas, oil, pneumatic, and hydraulic service across automotive, industrial, and residential settings.</li><li><strong>Finish options:</strong> Natural brass, nickel-plated, and tin-plated finishes are available depending on the environmental demands of the application.</li><li><strong>Extensive SKU depth:</strong> With hundreds of parts across multiple fitting types and sizes, it&apos;s easy to source everything needed for a single project from one brand.</li></ul><p>Whether you are maintaining a vehicle&apos;s fuel or coolant lines, plumbing a workshop compressor, or outfitting marine equipment, Brass Fittings delivers the precision and durability that professionals and serious DIYers depend on.</p>

Product Details

The Brass Fittings SHM1238 is a reducing hose barb splicer designed to connect two hoses with different inside diameters in a straight run. This fitting features a 1/2" barb on one end and a 3/8" barb on the other, allowing you to join hoses of different sizes for various fluid transfer applications.

Key Features:

  • White nylon construction for lightweight durability and chemical resistance
  • FDA approved material safe for potable water and food-grade applications
  • Dual barbed design creates a secure seal when used with hose clamps
  • Reduces from 1/2" ID hose to 3/8" ID hose
  • Corrosion-resistant plastic ideal for water, air, and compatible fluid lines
  • Easy installation with standard worm-drive or crimp-style hose clamps

This nylon hose barb reducer is suitable for a wide range of applications including potable water systems, marine plumbing, RV fresh water lines, aquarium setups, and general fluid transfer where FDA-approved materials are required. The barbed stems grip the inside diameter of flexible hose to create a leak-resistant connection when properly clamped.

Hopefully it fits my prius 08 touring no problem.

Took some doing but i did get to place my order.

After searching online I found the best price with free shipping here. Fast shipping and easy installation of my product.

This place is AWESOME!!! Thanks!!!

So far process has been very easy.

Easy ordering and great product lines. Emailed for an update on a item shipping from the manufacturer warehouse and it took about a week to get any response but it did come thru and the item is on its way.

Fast shipping. And great cust service.

Of 6 other vendors I'd found, every one listed the exact same price for the product. Autoplicity was well over 10% less. Although it's like an instinct for me to shop around & compare prices, I would expect that Autoplicity will be the hands down winner on any & all future purchases. I don't know how they do it...but who am I to question them saving me lots of money!!

I needed to verify the part was correct. The telephone staff was very helpful, professional and informed about your products.

great

The price was the lowest on the internet. And the shipping took 1 day. WOW, WOW, WOW! Ill be ordering from these guys again for sure! -Sean Hullender

Best price I could find! Shipped through UPS, great service.
