The Wabco 8931219404 Hose Barb is a component used within air brake systems, specifically for connecting hoses to brake actuators. It provides a secure and reliable connection point for air lines, ensuring efficient brake operation. This OE specification part is designed for robust performance and durability, contributing to overall system safety and longevity. It measures 20 x 22 x 50 mm. Basically, a hose barb is a fitting that connects a flexible air hose to a rigid port on your brake components – things like the brake chamber or the air compressor. It’s got that little flared end – that ‘barb’ – that the hose grips onto. Sometimes a clamp goes over it for extra security, but the barb itself is designed to create a tight, leak – proof connection. It’s all about securely transferring compressed air. Think of it as a key link in your air brake lines. Your whole air brake system relies on pressurized air getting where it needs to go, and the hose barb is where the flexible part of the system meets the solid parts. It’s used throughout the air system, wherever you need to connect hoses – from the compressor to the valves, to the brake chambers themselves. If one of these fails, or gets damaged, you’ll likely get an air leak. Even a small leak can reduce your braking power over time. You’ll notice if you start losing air pressure frequently, or if your brakes feel a little soft. It acts like a shield, keeping the air inside the system where it belongs. Ignoring a leak can obviously be dangerous, so keeping these in good shape is a good idea. You can find a good selection of these at places like Fixparts Online, and they’re usually pretty inexpensive to replace. It’s one of those preventative maintenance things that can save you a lot of trouble down the road. Trusted by drivers: Hose Barb (MPN 8931219404) comes with a 12-month warranty!
