Description
Add a branch to your hose run
If your garden hoses already have female quick connectors, this black three-way male hose connector brings them together at one junction. It has three male plugs, each with an orange sealing ring.
Use one arm for the supply hose and the remaining two for hoses leading to separate watering areas. Clip the hoses on when needed and detach them at their female connector sleeves afterwards.
One splitter supplied. Hose-end sockets and hoses are not included.
Check the connection on your hose
A female socket clips on
The socket at the end of your hose pushes over one of the splitter’s male plugs. Use compatible garden quick connectors; a male hose end needs a suitable female connection between it and this fitting.
Bare hose needs its own connector
The plugs are not hosetails. Fit a separate female hose-end connector sized for your hose before connecting it to the splitter. The hose bore is determined by that hose-end fitting, not by the splitter’s product name.
A tap needs an adapter
There is no BSP thread on this splitter. Connect it within a hose run; use the appropriate separate tap adapter and hose connection at the water source.
Shared supply, separate watering areas
A three-way fitting has three connections in total. Once a supply hose occupies one, two remain for outgoing hoses. It does not provide three outlets in addition to an inlet.
Position the junction where the hoses can take their routes without kinking or pulling sideways on the plugs. Both branches share the same supply; a long hose or a different sprinkler can change how water is distributed.
This connector has no branch valves, pressure regulator or automatic watering control. Choose suitable separate equipment if you need to isolate a branch or regulate pressure.
Connect with the water turned off
Release water pressure, inspect the orange sealing rings and check that your hose sockets are clean and undamaged. Push each compatible female socket onto a plug until it engages, then open the water gradually and inspect the joints.
For removal, shut off the water, release pressure and operate the sleeve on the female hose connector. The male splitter has no sleeve of its own. Drain the fitting before storing it and keep the junction accessible for checks during use.
Questions about the male three-way connector
Are the hose-end connectors supplied?
No. This listing supplies one black three-way male connector with its orange sealing rings. The compatible female sockets that fit onto the three plugs are separate.
Is it for ½-inch or ¾-inch hose?
The splitter connects to garden quick sockets rather than directly gripping bare hose. Use compatible female hose-end connectors that are sized for your own hose; do not force bare hose over the male quick-connect plugs.
Can I switch off one branch on the splitter?
No. The body contains no individual shut-off valves. If you need independent control, add suitable separate branch valves or choose a fitting with the required controls.
Does the splitter maintain equal pressure in both hoses?
It is a junction, not a pressure-balancing device. Supply capacity, hose lengths and the equipment on each branch affect the watering output, so check performance with your intended setup.
