3Sets Brass 1/2" Garden Heavy Duty Hose Mender Repair End Replacement Male Female Connector with Stainless Clamp

As advertised

I couldn't find the 1/2 inch version in any of the big hardware stores. These work perfectly.

These were 1/2" hose ends. I measured the cut off hose opening before ordering them and it was a tiny bit (1/32") larger than 1/2" but not nearly large enough to be 5/8". When they arrived I measured them and was a little taken aback to find that they were a little less than 1/2" so I knew in advance I was going to have a leak problem. And I did - a significant one - water spraying out the sides at both ends. I had tightened the clamps centered on the stem. I had an idea. I loosened and slid the clamps as far as they could go on the stem - so they were right at the end of the hose next to the menders. I reasoned that they might more easily seal the cut end of the hose to the stem than the body of the hose to the stem. Turns out that worked. I had to really tighten them down - to the point where I wondered if the clamps would hold. But the parts are strong and everything worked - not a drop of water leaked out even under pressure with a hose valve turned off on the end and the water at the bib turned on full. So I gave it a "4" for scaring me and making me think.

Far better than the cheap ones on budget hoses

-It's a 1/2" hose mender kit. What more can you expect?-1 of the clamps binded and wouldn't go smaller than 5/8" (see picture). Other than that, everything else worked as it should.-Works perfectly fine on a normal, 1/2" garden hose. That said...-I bought these to fix one of those new-style "Zero G" hoses. We had 3 hoses of varying lenghts, and on all 3 of them, the manufacturer fitting leaked after about a month. But the way the "Zero G" hoses are designed, it is difficult to utilize this type of repair. I have tried 4 different "methods" but none would give me a leak free result.-To reiterate: The product works well on a normal, 1/2" garden hose.

these are nice products can be used in many different applications, garden hose for watering garden plus a lot more, repair those hose ends where a part of the hose no longer works can also be used to setup auto watering system with drip hose irrigation.

I used these on my garden hose which had developed a leak. Once I cut the hose & installed this unit, it still leaked by the included hose clamp. The materials look and feel great - nice and sturdy. But either the hose, or these parts, are not the diamater they seemed to be.

Excellent product at a great price
