When you're in the middle of a job, the last thing you need is a leaky hose connection. The ESAB 522895 Hose Nipple is the exact replacement part you need to fix damaged connections on your welding rig. Designed with a .44-20 Female thread and a barb for 1/4-inch ID hose, this fitting gets your gas or water lines hooked up tight so you can get back to burning rod.
Don't settle for generic hardware store fittings that might not thread correctly or seal properly. This is a genuine ESAB part, meaning it's built to the exact specs of your machine. The brass construction is tough enough to handle the heat and abuse of the shop, and it won't rust out on you. Whether you are fixing a TIG torch water line or a MIG gas hose, this nipple provides the secure link you need.
Installation is straightforward: simply thread the female end onto your equipment's male outlet and push your 1/4" hose onto the barb. For the best results, secure the hose with a crimp or worm-gear clamp. Keeping spare fittings like this in your toolbox is a smart move for any serious welder, ensuring that a small broken part doesn't stop your production for days.
Leaks can lead to porosity in welds or overheating in water-cooled torches. By using a fresh, high-quality brass nipple, you ensure consistent flow and pressure. This small part plays a big role in the quality of your work and the longevity of your equipment.
