 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
