Boshart BG-197-1212NL No-Lead Brass Garden Hose Adapter, 3/4" MGHT x 3/4" FPT

The Boshart BG-197-1212NL is a No-Lead brass garden hose adapter designed to transition between a 3/4" male garden hose thread (MGHT) and a 3/4" female pipe thread (FPT) connection. Built for residential, commercial, or industrial plumbing rough-in work, this fitting gives contractors and plumbers a reliable way to tie hose-end equipment into standard pipe-threaded supply lines or fixtures. The No-Lead brass construction makes it suitable for potable water applications where lead-free fittings are required, and the compact threaded design allows for quick, tool-friendly installation in tight rough-in spaces.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 3/4" MGHT x 3/4" FPT for direct transition between hose-thread and pipe-thread connections.
  • Durable Construction: No-Lead brass body resists corrosion and holds up under repeated connect/disconnect cycles common to garden hose and utility applications.
  • Threaded Connection: Male garden hose thread on one end and female pipe thread on the other, allowing quick hand-tight or wrench-tight assembly to hose bibs, washing machine supplies, or other threaded fittings.
  • Versatile Application: Suitable for use in residential, commercial, or industrial plumbing systems wherever a hose-to-pipe thread transition is needed.
  • Compact Fitting Profile: Low-profile adapter body fits into tight rough-in and utility spaces without adding significant bulk to the connection point.

Boshart BG-197-1212NL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Boshart BG-197-1212NL thread onto a standard garden hose or a hose bib?
The BG-197-1212NL has a 3/4 inch male garden hose thread (MGHT) on one end, so it threads into the female coupler on a garden hose, a hose reel, or a washing machine fill hose. It will not thread onto a hose bib spout, because a hose bib spout is already male garden hose thread. For that direction you need a female garden hose thread adapter instead.
2) Is 3/4 inch garden hose thread the same as 3/4 inch NPT pipe thread?
No, and that is exactly what this adapter exists to solve. Garden hose thread is 3/4-11.5 straight thread, pipe thread is tapered NPT, and they do not seal to one another. The BG-197-1212NL carries 3/4 inch MGHT on one side and 3/4 inch FPT on the other so a hose-end connection can tie into a pipe-threaded line or fixture.
3) Can this brass hose adapter be used on potable water lines?
Yes. The body is No-Lead brass, which is the construction required for fittings on drinking water systems, so it can be used on potable supply as well as general utility and outdoor connections.
4) Does the 3/4 inch FPT side need Teflon tape or dope?
Yes on that side. The female pipe thread end is a tapered NPT joint and seals thread-to-thread, so tape or pipe dope and a wrench-tight pull are standard. The MGHT side seals on a hose washer instead, so it only needs to be snugged hand tight or lightly wrenched, and no sealant on the threads.
5) Can I use this adapter to connect a washing machine hose to a 3/4 inch pipe-threaded stub?
That is one of the intended uses. Thread the FPT end onto the 3/4 inch male pipe thread on the stub or valve, then the washing machine hose couples to the 3/4 inch male garden hose thread with its own washer. Brass holds up to the repeated connect and disconnect that hose-end equipment sees.
6) How many Boshart BG-197-1212NL adapters come in a carton?
Supplied 10 each per carton, which is how a plumbing shop or MRO stockroom would buy it for rough-in work rather than as a single loose fitting.
7) What part number should I order and where is the Boshart hose adapter made?
The manufacturer part number is BG-197-1212NL, a 3/4 inch No-Lead brass MGHT x FPT hose adapter from Boshart, made in Taiwan.
