The UnitedBuilt Choice 4404-24-24 is a straight hose shank adapter with 1-1/2" hose ID x 1-1/2" male NPTF.
This straight adapter connects a compatible 1-1/2-inch-ID hose to a matching female pipe port or fitting. The hose dimension is the nominal inside diameter of the hose; the pipe dimension is a nominal thread size. Confirm these independently rather than selecting by a single outside-diameter measurement.
Connect a beaded hose end to a pipe port
The beaded shank provides the hose-side insert, and the male NPTF end provides the threaded equipment connection. Keeping the connection in line is useful where no elbow is needed and the hose can follow its intended route. Leave enough space for the hose bend radius, attachment hardware and access to the threaded connection.

Before ordering
A shank diameter alone does not establish compatibility with a hose or its retention hardware. Have the hose and fitting supplier confirm the combination before assembly, including any ferrule or clamp requirements. Select the hose length and routing so the assembly is not used to pull misaligned components into position.
| Check |
What to confirm |
| Hose selection |
Confirm 1-1/2-inch hose ID and a hose construction approved for this beaded shank. |
| Pipe connection |
Match a 1-1/2-inch female pipe port to the male NPTF end. |
| Retention hardware |
Obtain the hose/fitting supplier’s specified attachment method; do not assume crimp, clamp or push-lock compatibility. |
| Complete assembly |
Confirm pressure, vacuum if applicable, fluid and temperature suitability for the assembled hose. |
Confirm the supplied part’s pressure and temperature limits, material compatibility and suitability for the operating fluid before installation. Connection size alone does not establish a service rating. Isolate and fully depressurize the circuit before work, and follow the equipment and fitting supplier’s installation procedure.
