Series 3T barb connectors

The Series 3T range of barbed fittings is designed for very soft, elastomeric tubing such as silicone, viton or PVC. The tube is pushed over the barbs of the connector and in most cases, a cable tie is used to secure the tube, however, in low pressure situations the tubing can be left unsecured. Barbed fittings are used extensively in low pressure peristaltic pumping applications & basic laboratory exercises. Series 3T barbed fittings are available in PP, PVDF & PTFE.
