You just need a barbed adaptor (reducer) from 1/2" to 8mm. ;)

you're better off with the fittings you have mate i use ez-snap fittings and i have only bought one set of fittings compared to hozelock fittings which i was changing every 2 months , had ez snap over 2 yrs now

I'd certainly agree. Stay with ez snap/rectus 21 type.

They're available from just about all major suppliers ... including http://www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/acatalog/EZ-Snap_Range.html
