Shurflo 1/2-Inch Barbed Wing-Nut Elbow Fitting

This Shurflo elbow fitting provides a secure connection between a compatible Shurflo pump and 12mm garden hose. It is suitable for the Shurflo 8000-946-138 12V pump and other pumps with compatible 1/2-inch male ports.

The 90-degree elbow design allows the hose to be routed neatly alongside the pump, making it particularly useful in compact van-mounted and trolley-based pure-water systems. Its wing-nut connection can be tightened by hand, allowing straightforward installation and removal without specialist tools.

IMPORTANT: THIS LISTING IS FOR ONE ELBOW FITTING ONLY. THE PUMP, STRAINER, HOSE, HOSE CLIPS AND ALL OTHER ACCESSORIES ARE NOT INCLUDED.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this fitting connect to the Shurflo 8000-946-138 pump?

A: Yes. It is designed to connect to the compatible 1/2-inch male ports found on the Shurflo 8000-946-138 pump.

Q: What size hose does it accept?

A: The barbed outlet is suitable for standard 12mm garden hose.

Q: Is a hose clip included?

A: No. The hose clip, hose, pump and other accessories must be purchased separately.

Q: How many fittings do I need?

A: The fitting is sold individually. You may require two fittings when connecting hose directly to both pump ports. If a strainer connects directly to the pump inlet, only one elbow fitting may be required for the outlet.

Q: Why choose an elbow instead of a straight fitting?

A: The 90-degree design is useful when installation space is restricted or when the hose needs to run alongside the pump without a sharp bend.
