3/8" Push-Fit to 1/2" Hose Stem Fitting – Tube to Hose Adaptor

3/8" Push-Fit to 1/2" Hose Stem Fitting – Tube to Hose Adaptor

The 3/8" Push-Fit to 1/2" Hose Stem Fitting is designed to connect 3/8" OD rigid or semi-rigid tubing to compatible 1/2" flexible hose within drinks dispense, beverage, air and gas systems.

The fitting combines a 3/8" push-fit connection with a 1/2" hose stem, providing a straightforward transition between push-fit pipework and flexible hose.

Ideal for professional draught beer and beverage installations where different types of tubing need to be connected.

3/8" Tube to 1/2" Hose Stem Adaptor

The push-fit side accepts compatible 3/8" OD pipe, while the hose stem is designed for compatible 1/2" ID flexible hose.

This makes the fitting particularly useful when connecting standard 3/8" beverage pipework to larger-bore flexible hose without using a threaded adaptor.

Push-Fit Connection

The 3/8" push-fit connection accepts compatible 3/8" OD tubing.

Cut the pipe cleanly and square before pushing it fully into the fitting. The connection can be released by pressing the collet towards the fitting while withdrawing the pipe.

1/2" Hose Stem

The opposite side incorporates a 1/2" hose stem designed to fit inside appropriately sized flexible hose.

The hose should be correctly sized for the stem and secured using an appropriate retaining method where required for the hose type and application.

Understanding the Pipe Sizes

The two connection sizes refer to different pipe measurements:

• 3/8" push fit – accepts tubing with a 3/8" outside diameter (OD)
• 1/2" hose stem – designed for compatible flexible hose with a 1/2" internal diameter (ID)

Always check both pipe dimensions before ordering.

Important

This fitting connects 3/8" OD push-fit pipe to compatible 1/2" ID flexible hose. It is not a 3/8" to 1/2" push-fit reducing connector.

Check the pipe and hose materials are suitable for the beverage, gas, pressure and temperature of your installation.
