Barb fittings for miniature pneumatic and fluid control applications

By Paul Heney | July 17, 2019

Share

Corrosion resistance and easy installation in small spaces make metal barbed fittings from IMI Norgren a suitable choice for a wide array of industrial automation uses including dispensing systems, gas sampling, and spraying systems. They are also used extensively in Life Science applications from laboratory equipment to medical devices.

A single barb design allows for a tight grip with a reliable seal, while nickel plated brass and stainless-steel body materials resist corrosion. These cost efficient fittings also have a shorter overall height so they are easy to install in space restricted applications. They are available in 16 shapes – including adapters, elbows, tees, bulkheads, unions and crosses – as well as multiple barb sizes and thread sizes. Custom designs and materials can be produced to ensure optimal performance.
