How do I ensure a leak-free connection?

Is this connector suitable for high-pressure systems?

While designed for secure connections, it is intended for standard garden watering pressures. For extremely high-pressure applications, consult the specifications of your specific watering system.

What material are the connectors made from?

Troubleshooting

Connector will not click or lock

Ensure both fittings are properly aligned and fully inserted. Check for any obstructions or debris in the connection points. Verify that both components have a ¾" BSP thread.

Leaking connection

Check that the connection is fully engaged by listening for the click. Inspect the O-rings or seals within the fittings for damage or debris and clean or replace them if necessary. Ensure the thread is securely tightened onto its respective component.

Difficulty disconnecting

Ensure you are pulling back the collar on the female fitting firmly before attempting to separate the parts. Check for any debris that might be hindering the release mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the connectors, screw the female fitting onto any male ¾" BSP threaded water source or accessory. Screw the male fitting onto any female ¾" BSP threaded hose or component.
