Maxijet .160 Barb x 10-32 NFT Thread

Product Overview

When custom micro-irrigation systems fail due to poor connection points, the resulting dry spots and plant stress can lead to expensive site revisits and client dissatisfaction. Finding a leak in a complex drip network during the peak of summer is a labor intensive task that drains your profitability. With the high demand of the current installation season and fluctuating inventory levels across the industry, waiting for back-ordered micro-fittings can delay project completion and stall your billing cycle. Securing your supply of reliable adapters now ensures your crews stay on site and your installations remain leak-free when the heat is highest.

The Maxijet .160 Barb x 10-32 NFT Thread adapter provides a superior mechanical connection compared to standard friction-fit alternatives. By utilizing the 10-32 National Fine Thread standard, this fitting prevents the blowouts commonly associated with high-pressure spikes or temperature fluctuations in poly tubing. These adapters allow your technicians to convert standard micro-tubing to threaded emitters or spray sticks with precision, reducing the time spent on troubleshooting and repairs. Stocking these professional-grade connectors gives your business a reputation for reliability and technical competence in precision irrigation.

Product Specifications

Specification Detail
Material High-Grade UV Resistant Polymer
Inlet Connection .160 Inch Barb
Outlet Connection 10-32 NFT (National Fine Thread)
Max Operating Pressure 30 - 50 PSI
Color/Finish Black
UV Resistance High

Available Models & Sizes

This specific adapter features a .160 inch barb tailored for standard micro-tubing and a 10-32 threaded end for specialized emitters. These are typically available in bulk quantities to support large-scale residential and commercial drip projects; please contact our sales team for full bag counts, volume pricing, or alternative barb configurations.

Key Features

  • Engineered from high-impact polymer to resist chemical degradation and environmental stress.
  • Sharp barb design ensures a permanent grip on .160 inch ID micro-tubing without the need for clamps.
  • Precise 10-32 NFT threads provide a watertight seal with spray stakes and threaded emitters.
  • Integrated hex nut or grip surface allows for easy hand-tightening or tool-assisted installation.
  • UV stabilized material prevents brittleness and cracking when exposed to direct sunlight in the field.
  • Low-profile design minimizes the risk of mechanical damage during routine landscape maintenance.

Common Applications

  • Commercial landscape irrigation
  • Residential lawn and garden systems
  • Greenhouse and nursery operations
  • Agricultural and crop irrigation
  • Municipal parks and public spaces
  • Potable water supply systems

Installation Notes

For the most secure connection, ensure the micro-tubing is cut squarely before pushing it over the .160 barb. When threading into the 10-32 receiver, hand-tighten the fitting until snug; over-torquing can damage the fine threads of the emitter or the adapter. It is recommended to install these fittings when the tubing is warm and flexible to ensure the barb seats fully against the tubing wall. Always follow local codes regarding backflow prevention when connecting drip systems to a main water source.
