Reducing Barb/Insert x Male Thread.
PVC Straight Insert Fittings for your plumbing needs. Use Schedule 80 Male Inserts where flexible turns and connections to fittings with female threads are needed. More professional look than white Schedule 40 PVC.
Reducing fittings allow the change of plumbing size. Barb x NPT fittings will accept traditional pipe thread on one side, and flexable tubing on the other.
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.

Do you have a 5/8" to 3/4" adapter size?
Question by: Art on Sep 12, 2017, 12:35 AM
Hi there, unfortunately, we do not carry any 5/8 PVC fittings. That dimension in PVC is not all that common, and you may need to source a vinyl adapter, which your local hardware store will normally stock.

Is this adapter compatible with schedule 40 PVC?
Question by: Sam on Jul 4, 2016, 10:23 AM
Yes, you will need a female pipe adapter to allow the PVC pipe to screw into the fitting but all of our barbed fittings will work with sch 40 or sch 80 PVC.
