Hozelock Connectors and Hose Repair - Everything You Need To Know

- We're talking through Hozelock's range of connectors to help you know which ones are right for you. We also go through how to repair your hose so if you do get a leak, you don't have to buy a new one!
In general, these standard hose connectors will fit nearly all hosepipes on the market, with the exception of some speciality and commercial hoses. Just about every hose we sell and the ones available in garden and DIY stores will take these fittings and are probably 12.5mm thick.
The hose end connector are the most common and the most used connector as these allow you to connect one end of your hose to a water source such as a tap etc. and the other end to a spray gun etc.
They make your life so easy as it converts the end of your hose to a universal standard that is common in the UK and other countries. They can even be used between most brands, due to being universal. So here we have a Hozelock connector, connecting to a Claber spray gun.

Use Aqua Stop connectors at the watering end of the hose that connects to a spray gun etc. as these clever connectors hold water back to stop water pouring out of it, unless something is connected to it. This means that water won't leak out while you change what you're connecting it to, making your life a little easier and drier!

If you have an outdoor tap, then it probably has a screw thread which you can screw the tap connector straight onto. Most are 3/4 inch or 1/2 inch BSP but for wider taps, they are also available in 1" BSP.

So what if you spring a leak? No need to buy a new hose, simply cut out the damaged section of the hose and attach it back together using the hose repair connector. You can also attach a hose end connector at one end, as mentioned above, and attach this double male connector at the other end so you can separate the two pieces of hose easily, giving you more versatility.

Say you want to connect 3 hoses together instead of 2? Use this Y connector that can also double as a split tap connector with control functions to do more with your garden.

I got a bunch of hozelock items to replace my old broken hose. Very impressed. I recommend the ultramax hose if you hate kinks.
Very helpful 👍
Great for my pond new subscriber Barry Manchester England 👍
Hi i have a 2 year old hozelock sprinkler just turned it on now but it/s not turning the one with a Spike in it . thanks
Can the pressure of water prevent water coming out of the aqua stop connector as water gets to the reel without it. We just bought new ones and still no joy.?
Hi, my tap is really thin (around 14mm) and ali need a thread tap connector for this size but can’t find one anywhere🙄 do you provide them?
What made you decide to cut to shots of him looking off to his left? Better if he had just turned on the cut to face us.
So which end do I put on the tap and which end goes on spray gun end as I do no have that brand of connectors mine are leaking wen I turn on my tap I have a malw and female one has a cross thread inside and one is just open which allows the water to flow threw easily which I suspect goes at my tap end but its has water leaking from it wen I turn tap on my hose isnt expensive winter maybe I need to invest in a better hose and connectors
Hi, the cross thread connectors normally connect to taps. It could be that it's the wrong BSP size for your tap which is causing it to leak. If you measure the diameter of the tap and then make sure the diameter of the connector matches, if it still leaks then there could be a fault with it. The male end should be able to connect into your spray gun but it's hard to say without seeing them. If you want more help then you can send us photos of what you have on Facebook messenger and we can try to figure it out from there. Hope this helps and you get it working :)
The connector leaks, do you know how to stop it? When I turn the tap on the water flows through the tap connector but when I attached the aqua stop connector to the tap connector, water flows out at the top? Thanks
Make sure the hose is fully inserted into the aqua stop connector. If it continues then call whoever you bought it from or Hozelock themselves as it could be a faulty one.
This the very same issue we have and when we bought a new 50m hose reel kit and several connections it continued to do this?
Hi. Unless I am missing the obvious, hows does the aquastop function stop the water coming out of the faucet?
Hi, there is a valve in the aquastop connectors that is not in normal ones so when you push it down to disconnect an accessory and attach a new one, it temporarily stops the water flowing through it. Hope this helps!
@@garden4less Yes, thank you for your reply.
Mainly, it stops water coming out from the end of the hose; but it doesn't stop the water at the tap - that just leaks everywhere from all the other connections.
Hi i have the superhoze and the need to replace the ends iv bought two different types and dont fit can you tell me which one i need thankyou
Hi, looking at the ones we sell, this should be a suitable replacement www.garden4less.co.uk/product/hozelock-hose-end-aqua-stop-connector-2055
If you've already tried these then I suggest measuring your hose depth and seeing if one of these would fit www.garden4less.co.uk/product/hozelock-hose-end-water-stop-connector-2075
Hope this helps!
Thanks its not that one iv already bought that it has a thinner inside to fit in the superhoze
I have a 10 meter hozelock hose. How do I extend it ?
You could use a repair connector or a double male connector to connect your 10m hose to another hose
What do you do if your hozelock keeps coming off of the tap? I’ve cleaned it but it keeps coming off
Sound like you may have a faulty tap connector, or the lip on the tap has worn away causing the connector to slip.
You can identify which is at fault by attaching a spray gun to the problem connector, if that also comes off with some pulling then it's the hose end connector that needs to be replaced else it's the tap connector. You can buy a new hose end connector from us at www.garden4less.co.uk/search?Term=Hose+End+Connector&Category=Hose+Fittings+%26+Connectors (you don't need one with the red band [an aquastop]), you can also buy a new tap fitting at www.garden4less.co.uk/search?term=Female+Tap+Connector
I have a red clip, it’s on the watering end of my hose. But when I turn the tap on, it stops the water coming out of the hose all together and it just builds up and disconnects cos the water pressure in the hose is too high. Any idea how I fix this?
Thanks
I would recommend soaking the hose in warm water to dislodge any debris which may be in the hose , another thing I could recommend is a new connector, as it may just be a faulty connector instead of hose.
I have Hozelock hand sprayer connected to a Hozelock hose pipe but the hand sprayer pops off all the time, Why? Thanks
This could be a faulty hose end connector - suggest you purchase a new connector to help with this
How do I remove the attachment from the outdoor tap? It's not coming off....
It could be stuck due to being on all winter? Try the steps shown in this link: www.hunker.com/13404630/how-to-remove-a-stuck-water-hose-fitting
So you don't put an aqua on the end of the hose that connects to the tap?.
You put the aqua stop connector at the sprayer end, so you can swap the accessories easily
How do I fit the spring I'm by
Not sure I understand - could you provide more details?
In the UK, we say ‘lesure’ not ‘leesure’. But helpful video nonetheless.
All I want to know is how to STOP the leak inside the hose reel!! It's a brand new hose. I've taken it apart twice and it still leaks. Arghhh I shall be taking it back.
Sorry to hear this. Hozelock Support should be able to help: email support@hozelock.zendesk.com for assistance.
I wouldn't call it a Hose Repair Connector. It should be called a coupler.
Talks too quickly so it gets hard to follow. Should go more slowly and show each part with pauses in between. Equipment is expensive.
I found this was too fast to understand easily.
Sorry about that - we will take your comments on board for future videos
Really great info thank you. However, PLEASE look at us your audience - instead of being led by the stupid 'off camera' (someone in TV/Video decided was clever videotography). NO, not clever, really annoying and actually insulting that the presenter/speaker appears more interested in looking at anything else than the viewer.
The auto stop connector doesn’t seem to work for me no water comes out when I attach the sprayer ? WhAt am I doing wrong
The little valve inside the connector may be faulty. Try putting your finger inside the connector whilst there is slow flow of water and see if the water flows out (don't point at your face!)
