Hose holder in M 3/8″x12 hexagonal bar in anti-corrosion brass (CR) – Maestrini

The hose holder in M 3/8″x12 hexagonal bar in anticorrosion brass (CR) of Maestrini is a fitting designed to practically connect a line with male threading to a flexible hose. The geometry in hexagonal bar facilitates grip during assembly and maintenance, making it a typical choice for systems requiring reliable and easily inspectable components.

This version is identified by the Maestrini code 7157C*12 and is suitable for applications in the field of , is a practical component for processing and assembly in the and plant engineering, including technical contexts such as nautical and onboard systems, where material selection and fitting quality are central aspects.

Features and construction details

Fitting configuration

• Type: hose holder
• Body: hexagonal bar (easy grip with wrench)
• System side connection: M (male thread)
• Size: 3/8″x12
• Material: anticorrosion brass (CR)
• Manufacturer: Maestrini
• Product code: 7157C*12

Anti-corrosion brass (CR): why it matters

The use of anticorrosion brass is a common choice when the fitting is intended to operate in technical environments where humidity, condensation, or demanding operating conditions may be present. This material is generally appreciated for its suitability in system engineering and for good workability, also useful during maintenance and component replacement.

Hexagonal bar: practicality in installation

The shape hexagonal of the body allows a more secure grip during tightening, reducing the risk of tool slippage and making it easier to work even in technical spaces. It is a construction detail particularly useful when working on existing systems or in hard-to-reach areas.

Typical applications

The hose connector is a transversal component, used in many system configurations where it is necessary to go from a threaded connection to a flexible hose connection. In nautical and onboard system contexts, it can be used in various service lines, always respecting the system specifications and materials compatible with the treated fluid.

Where it can be used

• Hydraulic systems and technical lines with flexible piping
• Maintenance and restoration of existing connections
• Onboard systems (nautical), where brass fittings are frequently adopted
• Technical setups and system panels that require a hose connector with male thread

Quando è una scelta sensata

It is a suitable solution when a simple and functional fitting is desired, with a body that facilitates assembly and a material commonly chosen for technical applications. The size 3/8″x12 allows maintaining consistency with systems already sized on these connections, avoiding unnecessary adaptations.

Operational advantages

Ordered connection between thread and tube

The hose holder allows for a clean connection between a threaded part and a flexible tube, promoting a tidy installation. In many systems, this type of fitting is chosen for its immediacy: the correct size is identified, the tube is prepared, and assembly proceeds according to best practices.

Ease of maintenance intervention

The presence of the hexagonal bar It is a concrete advantage in maintenance operations: it allows intervention with common tools and easier management of tightening and disassembly, especially when pipes need to be replaced or a line restored.

Quality and traceability of the component

The coding Maestrini 7157C*12 helps maintain traceability and consistency in spare parts management, an important aspect in professional contexts. During reordering or system standardization, being able to refer to a unique code reduces the risk of errors in selecting the fitting.

Usage and installation notes

For correct assembly, it is essential to verify the compatibility of the fitting with the tube and the threaded part of the system. In the absence of further specifications, it is advisable to follow the standard installation procedures for fittings and the instructions of the system designer or maintainer.

General good practices

• Size check: check that the size 3/8″x12 be consistent with the line and the tube to be connected.
• Tube preparation: clean cut and complete insertion on the hose holder, avoiding twists or abnormal bends.
• Tightening: use the grip of the hexagonal bar for controlled tightening, without forcing.
• Sealing: choose the sealing solution best suited to the type of threading and application (according to system practices and specifications).
• Final check: after installation, perform a visual check of the connection and verify the absence of leaks during operation.

Important note

The choice of fitting must always consider fluid, operating conditions and materials of the system. If you have doubts about the size or correct use, it is advisable to compare the code 7157C*12 with the spare parts list or with the component to be replaced.
