Product Overview
The Thermo King Barb Fitting 221042 provides a durable, OEM-style connection point for refrigerant, coolant, or condensate hoses used in Thermo King units. Designed to support consistent temperature control and minimize downtime, this fitting integrates with common Thermo King components used across reefer trailers and refrigerated trucks operated in West Texas, the Permian Basin, and beyond.
Key Features & Customer Benefits
- OEM Fit – Ensures compatibility with Thermo King components, reducing leak risk and simplifying service intervals.
- Robust Connection – Barbed profile secures hose with standard clamps for reliable sealing under vibration and thermal cycles.
- Service-Friendly – Allows fast replacement during preventive maintenance to maximize fleet uptime and reduce shop time.
- Fleet Reliability – Supports consistent temperature control across transport refrigeration units for cargo protection and regulatory compliance.
- Regional Durability – Performs reliably in the temperature extremes common to Amarillo, Lubbock, Odessa, and West Texas operations.
Product Details
The Thermo King Barb Fitting 221042 is an OEM-specified hose fitting engineered for use in Thermo King transport refrigeration assemblies. This part provides a barbed connection point for hoses and tubing where a secure mechanical seal is required. Material and exact dimensional specifications follow Thermo King engineering standards and match the fitment and function expected in Thermo King Precedent, S-610 series, and Diesel Direct Electric platforms when used in their intended hose and connection locations. For precise application guidance, reference unit service manuals or contact West Texas Thermo King for confirmation of fit and application.
Efficiency & Sustainability
Using OEM components such as the Thermo King Barb Fitting 221042 supports efficient, precise temperature control for transport refrigeration and contributes to fuel-efficient cooling operation across Thermo King units. Properly maintained connections reduce refrigerant leakage risk and help fleets maintain Smart Reefer SR-4 data integrity and compliance efforts such as CARB Evergreen-aligned maintenance practices.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
Install the barb fitting with OEM-grade clamps and ensure hose ends fully seat over the barb profile. Tighten clamps to manufacturer torque recommendations and inspect connections during scheduled service intervals. Replace fittings showing corrosion, cracking, or impaired sealing surfaces to maintain system reliability and prevent unplanned downtime.
Real-World Applications
The Thermo King Barb Fitting 221042 is ideal for reefer trailer refrigeration lines, refrigerated truck coolant circuits, and auxiliary condensate or drain connections in transport refrigeration units. Fleets operating in the Permian Basin and throughout West Texas rely on OEM parts like this fitting to preserve cargo temperatures and reduce operational interruptions.
Available for installation and service in Amarillo, Lubbock, Odessa, and throughout West Texas.
Backed by Thermo King’s engineering and supported by certified technicians at West Texas Thermo King, this component delivers lasting performance and uptime assurance for fleet operations.
