The Allied 12-90-1005 is a precision-machined adapter designed for medical gas and vacuum distribution. It features a 1/8" NPT male thread transitioning to a 1/4" hose barb, providing a secure interface between rigid manifold ports and flexible clinical tubing. The chrome-plated brass construction ensures maximum durability and clinical hygiene, while the tapered barb design creates an airtight friction seal for consistent pressure or suction delivery.
