Sea-Tech 013513-1008 Hose Barb Fitting, 1/2" CTS x 1/2" HB
The Pex tubing going in and out of my water pump has an O.D. measurement of 0.62", which is just .005 under 5/8". Question: would the above fitting be the correct compression fitting for this diameter Pex tubing? And from the description is that indeed a 1/2" barb?
Looks good to me. The CTS is for copper and PEX tubing and the HB is for hose barb. That .005" is probably just manufacturing tolerance.
Roger that, thanks. Basically, my Pex tubing is 5/8" O.D. Does that mean it is 1/2" I.D.? And is the 1/2" CTS fitting designed for 1/2" I.D. pipe, not 1/2" O.D. pipe?
