Title: Leak proof connectors
Post by: LHill on February 22, 2014, 09:15:43 pm

Anyone know a way to connect my hose reel so it doesn't leak? I'm using hoselock atm and it keeps leaking.

Have you got a brass swivel elbow connecting the reel to your DI?

I recently swapped the hoselock fittings on my di to geka and thats stopped the leaks there.. now i just need to sort the hose reel out before i end up with a flintstone van.. i got about an inch of water in the footwell..
