Boshart BG-196-0612 FGH x MGH x Barb Hose Adapter, 3/4"
The Boshart BG-196-0612 is a 3/4" FGH x MGH x Barb hose adapter used to transition a garden-hose connection to barbed tubing for rough-in and supply-line hookups. With a female garden hose (FGH) swivel on one end, a male garden hose (MGH) thread on the other, and a barbed outlet sized for 3/4" tubing, this fitting gives installers a quick way to adapt hose-thread connections to barbed PEX, poly, or vinyl tubing runs without soldering or specialty crimp tools. It is a common item on service trucks and in plumbing supply houses for jobs where a garden-hose bib, washing-machine outlet, or utility connection needs to be stepped down or extended onto barbed tubing.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 3/4" barb outlet sized to accept 3/4" tubing for a secure push-on/clamp connection.
- Dual Hose Thread Ends: FGH (female garden hose) swivel connection paired with an MGH (male garden hose) thread, allowing the fitting to connect between two garden-hose-threaded fixtures or hoses.
- Barb Outlet: Integrated barb end lets the fitting also serve as a transition to barbed tubing, useful where a hose-thread connection needs to be converted to a tubing run.
- Rough-In Utility Fitting: Compact, single-piece design intended for behind-the-wall or utility-area installations rather than finished, visible plumbing.
- Boshart Model BG-196-0612: Identified by Boshart's model designation BG-196-0612 for easy cross-reference and reordering.
