FAQs

Will this fit standard 1.5-inch pool hose?

This connector is designed for standard pond tubing; while the diameter is 38mm, compatibility with corrugated pool hose may vary depending on the hose wall thickness.

Can I use this for submerged applications?

Yes, this connector is made from durable materials suitable for continuous submersion in pond water.

Do I need any specialized tools to install this?

You only require a flat-head or Phillips screwdriver to tighten the included wire clips.

How many clips are provided?

Each kit includes one 38mm hosetail connector and two double wire hose clips.

Can this connector be used with pressurized filters?

Yes, it is designed to handle standard pond pump pressures, provided the hose is securely fastened with the included clips.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking at the connection point

Tighten the wire clip screw further or ensure the clip is positioned directly over the barbed portion of the connector.

Hose is too stiff to fit over the connector

Soak the end of the hose in warm water for 30-60 seconds to make it more pliable before attempting to push it over the barbs.

Clip is slipping off the hose

Ensure the clip is placed behind a rib or exactly over the center of the barbed section to prevent it from sliding toward the hose end.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a secure, leak-resistant connection
  • Easy to install without professional plumbing tools
  • Barbed surface ensures hoses stay firmly in place
  • Includes essential hardware for immediate setup

Cons

  • Not suitable for rigid piping applications
  • Requires a screwdriver to adjust the hose clips
  • May be difficult to remove once the hose has hardened over time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best seal, ensure your hose end is cut cleanly and square. If the hose is difficult to slide over the barbs, briefly dip the end of the hose in warm water to soften the material. The connector is compatible with most standard pond hosing. To clean, simply unscrew the clips and remove the hose; if mineral buildup occurs, soak the connector in a mild vinegar solution to restore its surface. Regularly inspect the screw mechanism on the wire clips once per season to ensure they have not loosened due to temperature fluctuations.
