female hozelocks with barbed tails
« on: March 26, 2014, 08:58:53 pm »
for half inch hose - anyone seen them anywhwere? 12mm tail I would have thought?

I've gone back to cold water for the summer and have discovered my car radiator hose is enormous and has gone thin. I've fitted some reinforced clear for now with ordinary hoselocks but will need to change again for hot later in the year.

Alex has ordered the straight through female barbed hoselock with a 1/2 tail, I'm hoping they will be in stock soon as I need them as well

These with a 1/2 tail

No they haven't. I email them 4-5weeks ago asking about them and they said they would get them in as they don't currently stock them.

How are you thinking of fixing them for use as a van port? The plastic ones work quite well as they can secured with the screw on nut that secures the hose to it.

I am making a bracket which looks similar to van ports but has a part on the rear that will hold the hose in place. Just need to
Make sure the fitting can slide back tho.
