i've got a 8mm barb on the end of my pole hose but i need to find a way of attaching it to a female hoselock so i can do a couple of caravans with a hose pipe. - i no i could just cut the hose but i'd rather make/buy a fitting that i can then re use , been looking about for hrs & cant see how, any one any ideas please

From the sounds of it you need an "Adapter to use EZ-Snap™ tail pole with standard hose reel"

Or alternatively you might need this adapter:

Could you post a photo of the fitting you are trying to connect it to (8mm stem).

its an 8mm stem that connects my pole hose to a push fit flow valve

Ok, that sounds a bit different to what you posted originally (8mm barb on the end of my pole hose) which I presumed was an EZ snap male connector. Do you not have an EZ snap male connector on the end of your pole hose (after your pole valve)?
-
no the flow valve is connected to my backpack by an 8mm barb& i've got another barb in my hose with the 8mm bit to connect to valve.

Could you take a photograph of those parts laid out with the part you want to connect to an outside tap clearly identified? I will be able to make you a little adapter to plug into the adapter you've already bought, but I need to see exactly what you are you using.

Great. I'll make you up a little adapter in the morning which will allow you to connect with the adapter you've just bought. Email me your name and address (alex@agardiner.co.uk) and I will get it sent out tomorrow.
