Hose barbs are cylindrical pieces or parts for attaching
and securing of hoses (tubing). The barb-like rings on the
cylindrical piece allow for an easy push-connection of
flexible-plastic or rubber tubing that is not so easily dis-
connected. Hose barbs are used in machine perfusion and
chemistry laboratory equipment. Hose barb fittings are
small curved, bent or T-shaped pipes, hoses or tubes with
hose barbs on at least one side used to join two or more
pieces of piping (hosing, tubing) together.
