Hose holder in M hexagonal bar 1/8"x6 in anti-corrosion brass – CR – code: 7157A*6T – Maestrini

Hexagonal bar hose holder M in anti-corrosion brass (CR) Maestrini

The hose holder in hexagonal bar M Maestrini is a fitting designed to create neat and functional connections between a threaded line and a flexible hose. The construction in anti-corrosion brass (CR) makes it a suitable choice for contexts where a reliable component suitable for technical systems is sought, including those typical of’onboard systems and nautical maintenance.

This version is identified by the Maestrini code 7157A*6T and is characterized by an hexagonal bar which facilitates grip with tools during assembly, contributing to a more practical and controlled installation. The fitting is designed for use in applications where it is necessary to connect a hose to a threaded connection point, maintaining a compact size and a geometry easy to manage in technical spaces.

Features and construction details

Material: anti-corrosion brass (CR)

The fitting is made of anticorrosion brass, indicated for uses where resistance to aggressive environments and material stability over time are relevant aspects. Brass is commonly used in fittings and components for systems due to its workability and good compatibility with many system configurations.

Geometry: hexagonal bar

The presence of the hexagonal bar is a practical element: it allows a more secure grip with wrenches or tools, helping to tighten and position the fitting with greater control. This shape is particularly useful when working in technical compartments or areas where access is limited and a stable support for the tool is needed.

Type: hose holder with male threading (M)

The component is a hose holder with male threading (M), designed to connect a flexible hose to a female threaded point present on valves, taps, manifolds, or other system elements. The hose holder part is intended for hose insertion, while the threaded part allows coupling with the counterpart.

Product identification

• Brand: Maestrini
• Supplier / product code: 7157A*6T
• Description: hose holder in M hexagonal bar 1/8"x6 in anti-corrosion brass (CR)

For proper management of spare parts and maintenance, the code 7157A*6T is the most useful reference during reordering or comparison with the plant's bill of materials.

Typical applications

A hose holder of this type is normally used to create connections between threaded components and flexible pipes in many operational situations. In technical and nautical fields, it can be chosen for installation, restoration, or modification of existing lines, where a simple and easily maintainable fitting is desired.

Plant engineering and maintenance

• Routine maintenance of lines with flexible pipes and threaded connection points.
• Repairs and replacement of worn or damaged fittings.
• Assemblies and small plant adjustments in technical spaces.

Usage contexts

Thanks to the anti-corrosion brass material, the fitting is often considered in contexts where exposure to humidity or harsh atmospheres is a factor to consider. In general, it is a suitable solution for systems using brass fittings and where ease of assembly is an important requirement.

Operational advantages

More practical installation thanks to the hexagonal section

The hexagonal bar offers a defined grip point, useful for working with tools more stably. This helps reduce the typical difficulties of installations in tight spaces and allows positioning the fitting with greater precision.

Neat solution for tube-thread connection

The hose holder is a functional choice when you need to go from a threaded connection to a flexible tube, maintaining a linear and easily inspectable configuration. During maintenance, a clear and accessible connection can simplify checks and interventions.

Consistency with brass components

In systems where brass fittings and components are already present, using a hose holder in anticorrosion brass allows maintaining uniformity of materials and construction approach, an aspect often sought in onboard technical management and plant engineering.

Usage and assembly notes

To achieve a correct installation, it is important to verify the match between fitting, tube, and threaded counterpart. In particular, before assembly, it is advisable to check that the plant's measurements and specifications are compatible with the 1/8"x6 configuration indicated for this item.

General indications

• Dimensional check: check that the male thread and female seat correspond and that the tube is suitable for the hose holder part.
• Controlled assembly: use the hexagonal section to tighten stably, avoiding improper maneuvers on the fitting body.
• Final inspection: after installation, perform a visual check of the connection and the insertion of the tube on the hose holder.

Note on spare parts and identification

In case of replacement, to reduce the risk of errors during ordering, it is useful to always report brand and product code 7157A*6T. If you are replicating an existing configuration, also compare the fitting geometry (hexagonal bar) and the type of connection (M).

Summary

The hose holder in hexagonal bar M Maestrini in anti-corrosion brass (CR) is an essential component for tube–thread connections in technical fields. The hexagonal shape facilitates assembly operations, while the reference 7157A*6T allows clear management of the replacement.
