Shurflo 244-2936 Straight Fitting, 1/2 Inch NPT Female x 5/8 Inch Barb, Brass Hex/Wing Nut Swivel

The Shurflo 244-2936 is a straight brass fitting that connects 1/2 inch NPT female threaded ports to 5/8 inch barb tubing, making it a common connection point in fresh water pump and plumbing systems. Its swivel design uses a hex/wing nut combination, allowing the barb end to rotate freely for easier alignment during installation without twisting the attached hose or tubing. The fitting is constructed of brass for corrosion resistance and durability in wet environments, and it is finished in black. At a compact 2 x 2 x 2 inches and 0.0375 pounds, it is a lightweight, low-profile component suited for tight plumbing runs.

This fitting is used to join a threaded fixture, pump port, or valve to 5/8 inch barbed tubing in a single fitting, eliminating the need for separate adapters. The wing nut allows hand-tightening without tools in confined spaces, while the hex feature accommodates a wrench when additional torque is needed. It ships as a single unit.
