This device is a simple way to salvage a broken hose. Just cut the hose ends square, fit them into the interlocking parts of the coupler, and tighten the screws for a watertight connection. The lightweight plastic won’t weigh down the hose, and it has rounded corners and recessed fasteners to prevent snagging.
Two sizes are available, one for 5/8" and 3/4" diameter hoses, and another for 1/2" diameter hoses.
This hose mender installs by cutting the damaged hose ends square, fitting them into the interlocking coupler halves, then tightening the screws until the connection feels watertight.
One version fits 1/2" diameter hose, and the other fits 5/8" or 3/4" diameter hose, so check your hose's diameter before ordering.
No, the rounded corners and recessed fasteners are designed to reduce snagging, so it moves smoothly across reels, hangers and coiled storage.
It's designed as a lasting repair rather than a temporary patch: once the screws are tightened over the interlocking coupler halves, the joint is watertight as long as the hose ends were cut square.
