Description
Make the connection from tap to reel
A short hose between a garden tap and a reel can make the setup much easier to position. This ½-inch Supreme Plus blue hose set combines your chosen hose length with two grey female quick-connect fittings.
Choose a short leader for a nearby reel or cart, or a longer length when you need more reach for watering and outdoor rinsing. The same four-layer reinforced hose runs through the range.
Hose and two connectors supplied. Tap adapter, reel, cart and spray gun sold separately.
Choose the length by the route it needs to follow
Measure around obstacles, rather than only the straight-line distance between connections.
For a reel or cart leader
Measure from the tap’s hose adapter to the reel inlet with the reel in its normal position. Allow a relaxed curve at each end and enough slack to move the cart without loading the connectors.
For watering further away
Follow the route around beds, corners and furniture to the furthest point you need to reach. Choose the length that covers that route without relying on pulling the hose tight.
Before choosing a long coil
Check the capacity of any reel you plan to use. Reel capacity depends on the hose’s outside diameter and how it is wound; a ½-inch bore alone does not confirm that a particular length will fit.
Match the connection at both ends
The included connectors are female garden quick-connect fittings for ½-inch hose. They attach to matching male spigots on suitable tap adapters, reel inlets or watering attachments.
They do not screw directly onto a bare threaded garden tap. Fit a tap adapter with the correct thread and a compatible male quick-connect outlet first, then check that each socket engages securely.
Keep the hose ends square and fully seated in the fittings, and check the seals before use. Turn on the supply gently and inspect the joints before leaving the setup to water.
Hose, two fittings and room to choose your setup
Every offered length includes two grey connectors. The hose uses four-layer reinforced construction with an integrated textile braid, finished in blue with grey striping.
Use it for ordinary garden watering and suitable outdoor rinsing. The hose is UV-resistant for outdoor use. Drain it after use and store it protected from frost.
A reel, cart, tap adapter or spray gun is not included. The green eight-pattern spray gun suggested above is an optional watering attachment; check its connection against the fitting you intend to use.
Questions about the blue connection set
Does every length come with two connectors?
Yes. Each length option in this listing includes the selected blue Supreme Plus hose length and two grey female quick-connect fittings for ½-inch hose. Reel, cart, tap adapter and spray gun are not included.
Will it screw straight onto my garden tap?
No. The supplied connectors are female garden quick-connect sockets. A threaded tap needs a suitable tap adapter with a matching male quick-connect outlet. Choose that adapter by the tap’s thread and check both mating connections.
Which length should I choose for a hose reel?
Measure the route from your tap adapter to the reel inlet and allow slack for gentle bends and any cart movement. For hose that will be stored on the reel, check its capacity for the hose’s outside diameter and selected length.
Does reinforced mean it can never kink?
No. The four-layer construction and textile braid reinforce the hose, but sharp bends, twists or trapped sections can still restrict flow. Uncoil it carefully, avoid pulling it around tight corners and drain it after use.
