Use Street (Spigot) x Barb/Inserts where you want to use flexible tubing. More professional look than white Schedule 40 PVC.
This street/spigot barb connector is great for converting plumbing fittings like gate valves or check valves to work with flexible tubing, or when you want to use flexible tubing straight out of a bulkhead with a slip connection. Street/ Spigot adapters have the same outside diameter as pipe, so they connect directly to fittings without the use of an additional piece of pipe.
The golden rule of plumbing is that every job takes three trips to the store. While this can be frustrating locally it can be much worse when shopping online. Being short a fitting or two can delay a plumbing project for days. Here are some quick tips to avoid this.
- Plan your plumbing on paper.
- Don't skimp on unions. Unions allow for easy breakdown and maintenance as well as remove the need for precise elbow placement. Use them as often as possible.
- When in doubt order extra. We happily accept returns for a full refund (less shipping) on all unused fittings within one month of purchase. A few extra bucks in return shipping is less frustrating than a project delay.

Will the 1” fit over my 1” pvc plumbing or do i have to size down for the outter rim of the fitting to fit INTO my 1” plumbing? Im using this for my return line so i can attach some tubing from my plumbing to my return pump
Question by: Edwin on Dec 18, 2022, 7:55 PM
Hey there,
Thank you for reaching out to us. No, this will be the same size as your tubing. You will need to add this in-between.

I just purchased the red dragon 3 and need to attach my 3/4" I'd tube to it what barbe fitting will work with the red dragon?
Question by: Glenn on Dec 18, 2022, 5:58 PM
Thanks for the question! For this you'll want the 3/4" Spigot x Barb fitting. The pump has a female 3/4" output so you'll need a short piece of 3/4" PVC to connect the two pieces. Please let us know if we can help with anything else!

Hello. I've been trying to find something like this to fit on my new COR-15 outflow. I would like to keep using 3/4" tubing instead of having to hard plumb. Would be great to slide the straight end into the COR-15 before locking in with fitting.
Question by: Fred C on May 12, 2022, 8:06 PM
Hello! You could use SKU 207926 to go directly into your COR-15 pump's 3/4" Slip PVC output option to connect tubing to the unit.

Which fitting would I need for 5/8 ID flexible tubing?
Question by: SYD on Apr 19, 2020, 11:27 AM
Hi Syd,
Since 5/8" barb fittings are rather hard to find I usually use a 3/4" barb fitting and stretch the tubing to fit over it. Depending on your tubing this can be a little difficult and will be made much easier by heating the tubing up with hot water before hand.
I am sorry I didnt have a better solution for you. Please reach out if you have any additional questions.
Happy Reefing!

Will these fit on each end of your cepex ball valves? I'm using your black flexible 3/4" line
Question by: Matthew York on Mar 31, 2018, 9:09 PM
Thanks for contacting BRS!
That would work in the Cepex ball valves! Have a great day!

My overflow has 2, 1" drains (Eshopps Eclipse L). What diameter pipe or tubing is recommended for run to the sump?
Question by: Tony on Nov 12, 2017, 9:38 PM
Hi Tony, great question!
I would use 1" pipe/tubing or larger to maintain the manufacturers flow rating on this overflow. Reducing the size of the drain lines will significantly reduce the amount of flow it is able to handle.
Hope this helps!

if i were to get the 1 inch barb fitting would i be able to just glue it directly to a bulk head or would i need to run piping out and then get a coupler and will the 1 barb fitting work with 1 inch hosing or do i get 1 1/4
Question by: Jared Gray on Jun 23, 2016, 10:22 PM
You will be able to insert it into the 1" Bulkhead without adapters. :-)

I need a Barb fitting to connect a 1.5" flexible hose to a 1.5" pvc pipe.
The barb should have a smooth end to accept the 1.5" pipe.
Please let me know what item to order.
Thanks,
Simon

Question by: SIMON on Mar 23, 2016, 12:40 PM
Great question!
We do not have the exact fitting available. You can use the 1.5" spigot x barb and a 1.5" slip x slip coupler together to create the effect. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!

Can I use this with a regular white ball valve I bought at Lowes, or do I have to use this with a gray ball valve?
I'm saying white and gray because I'm not sure if it's still schedule 40 or 80.
Thank you.

Hi Dylan,
The sch80 and sch40 are interchangeable, though you'll find that the sch80 components like the cepex ball valve are of a lot higher quality then the typical white sch40 bulkhead from the hardware store.
