Description
A watering lance to suit your hose setup
Choose the reach you need, then the fittings that suit your hose. Our 50cm, 75cm and 90cm aluminium lances share a curved neck, black grip and perforated rose for directing water over pots, along beds or towards hanging baskets.
The choice is at the handle: Professional kits have a brass valve, while Economy kits have a plastic valve. Hose connectors are included with some versions and separate for others.
Use both selectors above to choose one kit. The 75cm Pro + Hose Connector version is shown here.
Start with a comfortable reach
These are three separate fixed-length models. Choose from a stable standing position; the longest option is not always the easiest to guide.
50cm: nearby planting
The shortest shaft keeps the rose closer to your hand. Consider it for nearby containers, trays or a compact working area.
75cm: the middle length
More reach than the 50cm model, with a shorter shaft than the 90cm version. Compare it with the distance from your hand to the planting.
90cm: farther into the border
The longest shaft positions the rose farther from the grip. Check that you can comfortably support and direct it at your intended height.
Compare the Professional connections
All three have a brass valve. The fitting on the hose side is what changes; these close-ups show the connection, not three kits supplied together.
Professional
Includes the lance, brass valve and male quick-connect adapter. Push on your compatible female garden hose connector. The hose-side connector is separate with this version.
Pro + Hose Connector
Adds a brass female garden quick connector for ½-inch hose to the Professional kit. Its retaining nut secures the hose; the connector then clips onto the lance-side adapter.
Pro + GEKA
Includes the lance, brass valve and brass GEKA-style claw adapter. Bring it together with a compatible hose-side claw coupling and twist to engage. The mating coupling and any hose clip are separate.
Economy: two hose-connector choices
Both Economy options have a black-and-orange plastic valve with a male garden quick-connect inlet. They use the same type of push-click connection as a compatible female garden hose connector.
Economy
Choose this if your hose already has a suitable female quick connector. The lance and plastic valve are included; the hose-side connector is separate.
Economy + Hose Connector
Adds the matching black-and-orange female connector for ½-inch hose, as pictured. Secure the hose under its retaining nut, then clip the connector onto the valve inlet.
The ¾-inch BSP connection joins the valve to the lance. It does not mean the supplied hose connector takes ¾-inch hose. Garden hose is separate with both versions.
Connect, test and water
A little attention to the fittings helps avoid problems at the first use.
Check the connection
With the water off, check the sealing rings and threaded joints. A push-click connector and a GEKA-style claw coupling are different systems; do not force them together.
Start with a low flow
Open the supply gradually and inspect the joints. Adjust the valve beside the grip and position the rose close to the planting before increasing the flow.
Drain after watering
Turn off the tap and release pressure before disconnecting. Drain the lance, valve and hose, and store away from frost. If the rose sprays unevenly, shut off the water and check for debris.
Questions about choosing a kit
Does one order include every size or version?
No. Choose one Length and one Version above. You receive one fixed-length lance kit with the fittings for that selected version. These lances are not telescopic.
Which versions include a connector for the hose?
Pro + Hose Connector includes a brass connector for ½-inch hose. Economy + Hose Connector includes a black-and-orange plastic connector for ½-inch hose. The basic Professional and Economy options need your own compatible female quick connector. Pro + GEKA needs a separate mating hose-side claw coupling.
Does the GEKA option work with a normal push-click connector?
Not directly. The Pro + GEKA version uses a claw coupling that engages by twisting with another compatible claw fitting. Choose its separate hose-side coupling to suit your hose bore; a hosetail connection also needs an appropriate hose clip.
Can I change the spray pattern or extend the shaft?
Each lance has a fixed-length shaft and a perforated rose. There is no multi-pattern spray selector. Adjust the water flow with the valve beside the grip and select the shaft length before ordering.

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.
