2 Pack Brass Garden Hose Tap Connector,1/2 inch Brass Male Threaded Tap Connector for Hose Pipe,Copper 1/2" BSP Hose Connector Male Watering Fittings for Threaded Faucet Adapter Quick Connector

Perfect for our purpose. Good price too.

Good quality connectors

I needed both ends to put on a retractable hose. When connected to a hose spray gun one connector leaked. I tried ptfe tape that didn’t work. The problem was I needed two washers as the connector didn’t screw in enough to make a tight seal. Two washers and no leaks.

Our garden hose came with push for connectors, however, somehow, pointing no fingers😉, they disappeared after my other half put the hose away last winter. I decided to try the brass push fits, even though our previous ones were black plastic, because I thought they would last longer. We bought one of those expensive self extending hoses, which has been brilliant, and hope that with these brass connectors it will keep going for a few more years. They are well made, good threads, rubber washers and rings included in the pack, the rings are predicted onto the brass noses and work really well even though they are connected to a plastic push fit end on the hose itself, which I wasn't sure would work, but it does. Very happy with these.

For cheaper than a named plastic connector you can have two of these sturdy connectors. They are well made with a low tolerance. The parts screw together effortlessly and give a good connection.

Refund given as incorrect fitting.

My love for this little brass widget is out of all proportion to its innate modesty. I have gravity fed central heating, heated by a Rayburn, and an airlock had formed so the radiators stayed cold. After a lot of head scratching, following pipes, drawing diagrams, googling until I was cross-eyed, I decided to try to force mains water into the system to drive out the air bubble. I invested a fiver in this little brass miracle, I got two plus lots of useful washers, am embarrassment of riches! I attached it to one of the radiators, PTFE on the thread, clipped on the garden hose, said a prayer and turned on the outside tap. I ran back indoors half expecting a fountain of water somewhere. But no just the sound of water in the pipes and after a moment the trickle of it into the overflow cold tank. Dismantled the hose feed, said another prayer. Success! The rad immediately started to warm up. I remember years ago calling out a plumber to do the same job. Cost a bit more than a fiver. Yes, love is not too strong a word.

1/2 Inch Male Thread version is perfect for a Polar Recovery Ice Bath. Quality seems good, no leaks.
