Festo N-1/8-P-6, Hose Barb

The Festo N-1/8-P-6 hose barb is a small but essential fitting used to connect flexible pneumatic tubing to threaded ports. It is designed for secure, leak-resistant air connections in compact pneumatic systems where reliability matters more than complexity. This fitting is typically used in control panels, air preparation units, and small automation setups where space is limited and connections must remain secure during operation.

Salient Features of the Festo N-1/8-P-6 Hose Barb

The hose barb side grips the tube tightly once installed, helping prevent air leaks or accidental pull-out. The 1/8-inch threaded end allows easy installation into valves, cylinders, or manifolds without special tools.

• Hose barb size: 6 mm.
• Thread size: 1/8 inch.
• Push-on hose connection.
• Secure mechanical grip.
• Dependable for everyday pneumatic use.

Easy Installation and Maintenance

This fitting is quick to install and remove during system assembly or maintenance. Once the hose is pushed onto the barb, it stays in place under normal operating pressure. The threaded end seals properly when tightened, reducing the risk of air loss.
