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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-Grade UV Resistant Polymer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.160 Inch Barb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-32 NFT (National Fine Thread)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Operating Pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 - 50 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\/Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUV Resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAvailable Models \u0026amp; Sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis specific adapter features a .160 inch barb tailored for standard micro-tubing and a 10-32 threaded end for specialized emitters.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maxijet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52146189664545,"sku":"MJBBXT6","price":5.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/8458\/3969\/files\/mjbbxt6_PR.png?v=1765975350","url":"https:\/\/asiwsupply.com\/products\/maxijet-160-barb-x-10-32-nft-thread","provider":"ASIW","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
