Description
Hose barb Ø 8 mm is a straight laboratory hose olive manufactured from polypropylene for reliable tubing connections. With a precise diameter of 8 mm, this component supports secure attachment of flexible hoses in fluid and gas handling setups commonly found in research and analytical laboratories. The straight geometry simplifies integration into existing apparatus and tubing lines without complex adapters. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,001 kg, the lightweight polypropylene construction offers practical handling during assembly of experimental systems. This hose barb from manufacturer Witeg is intended for everyday laboratory use where a durable 8 mm olive is required for connecting tubing. Polypropylene provides a robust material choice suited to standard laboratory environments. The compact form factor and defined diameter help ensure consistent fit across compatible hose sizes. Ideal as a basic connector element within glassware and plasticware configurations, it contributes to efficient setup of transfer lines. Originating from Germany, the product meets typical requirements for laboratory hose fittings in chemical, biological and general scientific workflows.

Questions about Hose connection, straight, 8 mm o.d., ma
What is this article?
Hose connection, straight, 8 mm o.d., ma is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A hose connector or adapter joins two lines, or steps one bore down to another. The barb diameter has to match the tube, and the thread has to match the stopcock or the bottle. Most leaks are a mismatch here, not a hole in the tube.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
