Not sure if this would help not got backpack but could you not use 2 hoselock connectors with short bit of pipe between and a 6mm hosetail instead of silver coupling

Hozelock fitting to go on the elbow.  Attach a short length of standard 1/2" hose - shove a short length of 6mm microbore in the 1/2" hose and secure with a couple of hose clips or cable ties - 6mm male hosetail - connect to female fitting as in the picture.

I've got one of these that's seen many years service and still going strong.
