Shurflo Wingnut Swivel Elbow 244-3926, 1/2 Inch NPT x 1/2 Inch Barb Fitting
The Shurflo 244-3926 is a wingnut swivel elbow fitting built for onboard freshwater plumbing runs. It connects a 1/2 inch NPT threaded port to a 1/2 inch hose barb at a 90-degree angle, letting the barb side rotate freely so the attached hose can be aligned without twisting or kinking the line. The wingnut collar allows the fitting to be hand-tightened and removed without tools, which speeds up installation and simplifies future hose swaps or pump servicing.
This elbow is intended for use in marine water system plumbing where a threaded pump port, tank fitting, or manifold outlet needs to transition to standard 1/2 inch barbed hose. Its swivel design reduces stress on the hose connection and makes routing easier in tight installation spaces typical of boat plumbing lockers.
