Title: Alternative Pole Hose Connector
Post by: Positivity on October 07, 2015, 12:47:50 pm
Hi
Someone posted a link a while back for a Plastic alternative to the EZ-Snap Rectus 21 type fittings for connecting pole hose to microbore reel hose. I seem to remember they had a locking thing on to stop them popping off.
Anyone know who supplies them?
Thanks

Sometimes certain suppliers aren't as good as others, I used to get me bits and bobs from wcw but now buy all my rectus fitting dubilee clips hoses  from circuit hydralics

This guy is very competitive if not cheaper and quality is much better, I batter my rectus fitting dragging them along the floor but still last approx 6 months, bought a load of male & female over a year ago and still have loads left untouched in the shed.

Yes that's the one Thanks. Could do with 8mm tail to fit the microbore though.

Saying that, what some of my customers have done is to put a small piece of pole hose maybe 1" on to the barb of the 6mm fitting then pushed this into the 8mm minibore.
