FAQs
Are these connectors compatible with 12.7mm hoses?
Yes, the connectors are specifically designed for standard 12.7mm (1/2 inch) garden hoses.
Will these brass connectors rust?
Brass is highly resistant to corrosion and does not rust like iron or steel, making it ideal for outdoor water applications.
Can I use these with a high-pressure hose?
These connectors are intended for standard residential garden water pressure; they are not rated for high-pressure industrial power washing systems.
What is included in the box?
The set includes a 10.1cm spray nozzle, a 19mm tap adaptor, a 12.7mm water tap connector, and a 12.7mm hose connector.
Do I need any tools to install them?
Generally, these can be hand-tightened, though a pair of pliers can be used gently if you need extra grip on the tap adaptor.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking at the tap connection
Check that the internal washer is seated correctly and ensure the adaptor is tightened firmly to the tap threads.
Difficulty connecting components
Clean the threads of any sand or debris, and ensure the connector is aligned straight before twisting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Avilo Brass Hose Connectors is straightforward. Begin by attaching the 19mm brass tap adaptor to your outdoor faucet, ensuring it is tightened securely. Connect your 12.7mm hose to the female water stop connector, then attach your chosen accessory using the accessory connector. For care, keep the threads clean and free of grit to ensure smooth engagement. While brass is highly resilient, it is recommended to remove the connectors from the tap during freezing winter months to prevent any trapped water from expanding and damaging the metal. Periodically wiping them down with a damp cloth will keep the bronze finish looking professional and prevent mineral build-up from hard water.
