Hose pipe Connectors

Post by teams »

Hi Guys

I'm trying to connect a Tacklife soaker hose pipe to a generic hose reel, I think I need a 'female' connector (push in) to connect the hose pipe to the hose reel. Any ideas guys?

Thanks in advance.

Difficult without photos but if you want to join two hoses together you need a male connector.

I had one of them hoses, absolute rubbish, it leaked everywhere. :lol:

But in all seriousness it depends on what you have and what the hose has, you have not said, or posted pictures. The one I had, I cut the connector off and changed it to one to fit my hose.
Above are my opinions Below is my signature.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

hozelock are decent quality, the metal ones are good but pricey

A quick google shows it connects directly to a tap so 3/4"

so one of these.............. (aka an accessory adapter)

If it is this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/153895263386?c ... gL-EfD_BwE

It looks like ¾" BSP so this should do it https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/114229906340?c ... gKLkfD_BwE

BUT! If it is a US product I think they have a similar size thread that looks like BSP but has a different pitch. Try it and see. :thumbleft:
