Barbed Weld Bung (Aluminum)

Sometimes the vessel just needs a hose nipple, welded where you want it.

Fabrication means creating ports where none existed. The Finish Line Factory Barbed Weld Bung (Aluminum) is aluminum parent stock machined into a welded hose barb in 1/2" Barb, 1/4" Barb, 3/4" Barb, 3/8" Barb, 5/8" Barb, for vessels that want simple clamped connections. Match the aluminum to your parent metal and weld with confidence.

The Details

Weld bungs live or die on material match: steel to steel, stainless to stainless, aluminum to aluminum, because dissimilar welds crack under thermal cycling. A welded barb suits vents, drains, and low-pressure lines; match hose ID and clamp behind the ridge. Weld in stages on thin walls, chase threads after cooling, and pressure-test before the system sees service.
