Have you seen or used these connectors before? If you use another method to fix hoses we would love to hear about it! Thanks!
heat gun to warm up cut end hose and Vaseline the repair insert and no fight to slide the hose over the inserts also to seat the inserts completely you can use a wrench on the hose insert just past the threads is a 8 sided flats to use the wrench on to twist it into the hose completely
Video too long.
I had 1 hand on the garbage can lid about to toss a broken hose, and I'm like you know what let me check RUclips there's probably a way to fix this. Did not disappoint. You saved me a hose, thanks!
Thank you! It took me weeks of sulking from having no one to help fix my garden house. I cut the hose and still couldn't get the adapter in. After the first three minutes of your video (and a little boiling water for the hose), I put everything together correctly! Very grateful!
Last year I refitted my hoses and did not notice the fittings were dissimilar metal. Thumbs up 👍
Appreciate the feedback Clarence! Did the hoses get stuck together?
I've used two different hose ends and they both had small leaks, so I put a small amount of silicone sealant on the barb before pushing it into the hose. I do the same with the hose splicer connections.
Another very good, practical, useful video. Thank you!
You are welcome. Really glad to hear you liked it. Thanks a lot for taking the time to leave feedback Jim!
Using liquid soap on the inside of the hose [use your pinky for 360-degree coverage of the soap] should get your hose to slip on easily.
That’s a great tip! Thanks a lot for the input Stan!
So you have to finger you hose and lube it?
Great tips.
thanks
Thanks for this video! I was going to buy a new hose!
I’m glad you didn’t have to
I have no intentions of that - there’s nothing wrong with the hose I have except I have a sprayer I wanted to replace and it doesn’t want to come off 🙄
The hose I have is VERY long and is great all around the house- this year I’m gardening - sooo 🤔
Something you always have around to make the hose slide on easier and leave no residue. .. Use your finger to apply spit inside the hose. Works good on wood screws also.
How do you remove the spline in the hose (thing that prevents kinks)? You mentioned to remove about an inch but it's difficult to get in with a knife or scissors. I cut as much as i could and use a similar repair kit but was still getting leaks. This was on the female side.
Never seen this on hoses. We have those plastic quick release connectors, which can pressed in, and released by pulling the cilinder backwards
Interesting. I have some Metal fittings that I can add to the regular hose ends to do that but haven’t seen them built into the hoses. Appreciate the feedback.
@@HowToHomeDIY might be a Europe thing. I’m from Europe (Netherlands).
The only place I use threaded copper; is on copper water pipes in the house.
Also all garden accessories have the male end which fits on any hose I can buy, so basically hoses have the female quick release fittings (often one end with a disc in it to make the water flow stop if the accessory is pulled out), and the tap or accessories have male ends. To extend houses we use male to male fittings.
I forgot to mention that that clamp is tapered and is larger at one end than the other and should be placed on in a specific Direction
In a pinch could I use PVC until I get a collar or copper?
Sure you could!
Ever repaired/replaced the end of one of the flexible metal garden hoses after it started leaking?
I have not.
@@HowToHomeDIY Thanks for the reply.
You could heat the ends to stretch and slide on easily!!! hair blower!
So there I was reeling up the hose and all of sudden a sharp cutting pain on my shin. Yep...it was those hose clamps.
That is not called an Adapter it is a male to male Barbed fitting
Buy a better hose with crush proof ends and avoid all this. They are expensive, but they pretty much last forever.
Put the ends in HOT WATER TO MAKE IT MORE PLYABLE..High school science MR TEAMER 19TH GRADE…COME ON BRO……..
That’s what I do, slides in like butter!
get to the point
There are several. My goodness.
Patience is a virtue - depending on what one is doing there are those who have n o n e
I’m glad there’s a solution
However
There is for everything
Just need to discover it and THAT can take patience 🙂🇨🇦
heat gun cut hose and vasoline the repaitr insert and no fight to slide the hose over the inserts
Appreciate the tip David!
@@HowToHomeDIYalso inserts typically have a nut end where u can put a wrench on to screw down completely into cut hose
