Title: Which Female connector for Brass Swivel Elbow for Claber hose reel
Post by: lal on July 30, 2016, 05:43:23 pm

 Hi all, can any of you Pro's advize me,  I have just bought a Claber hose reel, plus a Brass swivel  elbow, which i want to
 connect to the  1/2 inch heavy duty  hose which feeds the pumped water from the tank to the hose reel, which female connector
 should i use to connect the 1/2 hose to the brass swivel elbow  (sorry if I've complicated this) and should it be metal or plastic,
 being as the swivel elbow is brass. any help appreciated  :)

  Regards
  Lal

100% with Tony on this. Those connectors are pretty much bullet proof. Plastic ones leak fairly quickly
