Shurflo 1/2 Inch Barb x 1/2 Inch NPT Wingnut Swivel Adapter, Nylon, Model 244-2926
This Shurflo wingnut swivel adapter connects a 1/2 inch barb hose fitting to a 1/2 inch NPT threaded port, giving you a quick, tool-free way to attach or detach hose lines on freshwater pump plumbing. The wingnut end allows hand-tightening for a secure seal without wrenches, while the swivel action lets the hose rotate freely so tubing can be routed without twisting or kinking. Molded from nylon, the adapter resists corrosion from fresh water and marine environments better than metal fittings, making it a practical choice for boat and RV water systems where repeated hose changes and washdowns are common.
This adapter is the same style of fitting included with many Shurflo pump heads, so it works well as a replacement part when an original wingnut adapter is lost, cracked, or worn out, or as a spare for building custom plumbing runs. The straight-through design keeps flow restriction to a minimum, and the black nylon housing holds up to typical onboard chemical and UV exposure better than unprotected fittings stored in bilges or lockers.
