Description
Keep the connection. Replace the fitting.
Choose a threaded adapter for an existing hose-end thread, or a direct replacement connector for a compatible expanding hose end.
The blue and black fittings have female garden click-lock sockets, but their hose-side attachments differ. Use the option guide below to choose the right part.
The image shows the male/female threaded pair. Contents depend on your selection.
Which option belongs on your hose?
Match the attachment first, then choose the parts you need.
| Option | What you receive |
|---|---|
| Male & Female Adapter Set | Two adapters: one with a ¾-inch BSP male thread and one with a ¾-inch BSP female thread. Each has a female garden quick-connect socket. |
| Male Threaded Connector | One adapter: external ¾-inch BSP male thread to female garden quick-connect socket. |
| Female Threaded Connector | One adapter: internal ¾-inch BSP female thread to female garden quick-connect socket. This is the blue STOP-marked version. |
| Male. Female + Double Male | Three pieces: the two threaded adapters above, plus one double-male garden quick-connect joiner. The joiner connects two compatible female sockets. |
| X Hose Replacement Connector | One complete direct hose-end connector, including its cap and gripping collet. Its barbed tail attaches to a compatible expanding hose; it is not a ¾-inch BSP hose-side adapter. |
A threaded adapter or a hose repair?
A threaded adapter screws onto an existing compatible fitting. Choose the opposite thread gender: a male adapter meets a female thread, while a female adapter meets a male thread.
The direct replacement shown here works differently. Its hose tail, gripping collet and cap form the hose attachment. The cap thread belongs to that assembly; it is not the same as the ¾-inch BSP connection on the other options.
Expanding hoses use different end fittings. Compare your old connection and hose construction with the photographs before choosing a replacement.
Check the fit before turning on the water
A familiar colour or collar shape does not establish compatibility.
Identify both ends
For the threaded adapters, check the existing thread is compatible ¾-inch BSP and choose the correct gender. Check the male quick-connect profile at the other side too. BSP size describes a thread, not the bare hose diameter.
Fit without forcing
Turn off the water and release hose pressure before working. Follow the hose or equipment instructions for assembly and sealing. If the fitting will not engage correctly, recheck it rather than forcing plastic threads or the hose attachment.
Inspect the joints
Reconnect compatible parts, turn on the water gradually and inspect the assembled connections. Stop the supply before making adjustments. Do not assume every option has an automatic water-stop mechanism.
Questions about these hose connectors
Does male or female refer to the quick-connect end?
In the Male Threaded Connector and Female Threaded Connector options, it refers to the BSP thread. Both adapters have a female garden click-lock socket at the other end. The male thread screws into a compatible female port; the female thread screws onto a compatible male port.
Can I fit a threaded adapter straight onto bare hose?
No. The threaded adapter needs an existing compatible ¾-inch BSP fitting. The X Hose Replacement Connector is the separate direct hose-end repair option, with a barbed tail, collet and cap. Check that its attachment suits your particular expanding hose before ordering.
When do I need the double-male joiner?
It provides two male quick-connect ends between two compatible female sockets. It is included with the Male. Female + Double Male option only. The plain male/female threaded pair and the individual connector options do not include it.
Are all five options included in one order?
No. You receive the option selected when ordering. The comparison table lists the contents of each choice. Hose, taps and spray accessories shown in installation photographs are not supplied.

What is BSP?
What is BSP thread size?
BSP (British Standard Pipe) is a nominal pipe-thread size, not a direct measurement of a fitting’s bore or outside diameter. For example, a ½-inch BSP male thread measures about 21mm across its outer thread crests.
These figures are approximate outside diameters of male BSP threads, to help identify the nominal size. They are not inch-to-millimetre unit conversions:
- 3/8" BSP → 16.66 mm
- 1/2" BSP → 20.95 mm
- 3/4" BSP → 26.44 mm
- 1" BSP → 33.25 mm
- 1.25" BSP → 41.91 mm
- 1.5" BSP → 47.80 mm
- 2" BSP → 59.61 mm
- 3" BSP → 87.88 mm
- 4" BSP → 113.03 mm
All our BSP threads are parallel (BSPP, to ISO 228), not tapered.
Measure across the outside of a male thread, then check its pitch and whether it is parallel or tapered. Diameter alone does not confirm compatibility. Check the product’s stated thread specification before connecting.
