The fitting is engineered to create a secure, leak-minimizing connection with common garden hoses and taps. Its compact form factor and straightforward shape make installation and replacement fast and uncomplicated, without the need for specialised tools. The metal surface simplifies cleaning and withstands typical mechanical stresses associated with garden watering.

How to use

Ensure the tap outlet and hose end are clean and free of debris before attaching the fitting. Screw or press the fitting onto the tap according to the tap’s connection type until it seats securely, then attach the garden hose coupling to the other end and confirm a snug fit. Turn on the water supply gradually and inspect the connection for any signs of leakage; if necessary, tighten the connection or reposition the hose to achieve a firm seal. For disconnection, turn off the water and relieve pressure before removing the fitting.

Recommendations

To prolong service life, avoid exposing the fitting to freezing conditions with water inside; drain connected hoses and store fittings indoors during winter. Periodically check the chrome surface and seals for damage, and replace the fitting if deformation or persistent leaks occur. Use with hoses and taps of compatible dimensions to ensure correct performance.
