3Sets of Connectors for Garden Water Hose Expanding Hose Female Male Expandable Garden Hose Repair Kit

I love it I save money to fixed my water hose putting this connector. just follow the piece of paper and instruction they gave u with the product then it’s really easy.

I had an expandable that was leaking from top. Followed instructions..as most mentioned, used soapy water to get inner tube on. The difficulty came with the white cap and getting the threads to match up and screw tight. I used the other end piece (not needed for repair) as hexagon to screw it on while pushing HARD at same time...finally they met and screwed on tight! I removed that end piece and viola! I took 1 star because now it's female to female connector and couldn't get my sprayer back on. Back to HDepot I go tomorrow for an adapter to use my sprayer. See pic. Otherwise! Saved me $50 for a new hose!! The repair kit has 6 repair things for $7.20. #winning

Decent product. I had an expandable hose with some run time on it that ruptured at the inlet end. I love using this type of hose, so I decided to either throw it in the trash & order up a new one or attempt a repair. The repair process went smoothly and took roughly a half an hour. Don't count on the instructions too strongly except in leading you in the right direction as opposed to a clean, detailed step by step path. I found this repair kit a good option because it was less than $10 & gave me three sets of repair ends for future use as well. Because it contains both male & female connectors that are capable of screwing together, you could make repairs within the middle of your damaged hose or at either end. You could even choose to cut yours in half & make two usable hoses. We'll see how the plastic components fair in the AZ sun

I bought this specifically to fix a "Pocket Hose Brass Bullet" hose. I watched a bunch of videos on how to install it. All the hose internals looked the same so I assumed the Pocket Hose would use the same think-walled tubing as the ones in the videos. Imagine my surprise when I cut open my hose only to find the internal tubing was of a much larger diameter then the ones in the videos. I'm including a picture of the internal tubing in my Pocket Hose. The nipples on the repair parts are much too narrow for this tubing. I decided to try it anyway and of course it leaked like a sieve. Needing this hose to be in working order quickly, I went to my local home center and bought a 5/8" inline brass repair kit that you would use for a normal garden hose. I was able to stretch the tubing and the outer covering over the brass repair part and secure both with the provided hose clamp. Worked great. No leaks. I've been looking for an official repair part for the Pocket Hose but all I can find are ones similar to this one.So the lesson learned is don't buy anything until you cut open your hose to see the inside diameter of the internal hose. If it's greater then about 1/4" this part won't work.

My 4 year old expandable hose slipped the inner tube from the female end of the hose. I see the cost of new expandable hoses has gone up a bit since and thought I would try to repair it first. The inner tube on my is a very sticky rubbery compound, with a wall thickness of maybe 2mm. It had withdrawn a few feet into the hose sheath. It was very time consuming working the end of the hose out so I could work on it. Once I got access to it, the compression barb parts were easy to get on, but make sure you get the other parts on first as they won't slip over once the barb is on. For my sticky rubbery tube some soapy water was helpful for getting it on. The next obstacle was getting the clamshell parts screwed together. Despite the pictures showing the sheath pulled all the way to the threads, I simply could not get the threads to meet with the sheath in the way. I trimmed a lot of it away with scissors and finally with much effort they started to join and compress everything together. I think enough of the sheath is retained by the cover that it will hold, although it's hard to be sure. The final annoyance is the instructions don't say anything about it, but you'll need largish hex-driver to really tighten it down. I want to say I used a 12mm or 14mm hex for the female end, which I was fortunate to find in my toolbox.Overall, this was very difficult to make work. I've had it installed for about a week now, and used it a few times. Seems to work and be holding water, but the true test will be if it's still holding at the end of the season. I'm sure there are some hoses this works better for, but there are clearly a variety of designs of hose and this doesn't work well with all of them. I don't know if it really helps, but mine is a 75' "Morvat" hose from 2020. I don't see any current listings for them for expandable hoses. Ultimately it probably wasn't worth my time trying to fix this hose and I should have just put the money towards buying a new one.

This product is fantastic follow the instructions and Revitalize your hoses that I normally throw away. I have thrown away at least four of these hoses because I did not know we can repair them. One kit repairs two hoses absolutely fantastic.. now that all of these hoses are so expensive it's great to be able to fix them

I suppose this is item might work for some hoses. It did not work on a Joey's Garden Premium hose. HOWEVER, here are some things you need to know. It doesn't work on ANY expandable hose as advertised or portrayed in the instructions. It is very difficult to install. As you can see in the 3rd photo, there is not any room in the assembly for the cloth sheathing of the hose. Once it is all assembled, the collar (seen in pic 1) does not even reach the threads. I even tried to ease it on using a vice. Photo 2 is very important. Once you do get the collar far enough (i had to pull back the sheathing) up to TRY to thread it, there isn't anything to hold on to to be able to tighten it down. As you can see (pic 2) inside the female end, there is a hex inset similar to a bolt head. You will need something to fit in there to be able to tighten the collar on. The outer female end turns independently like a normal hose end. Oh, and the best part, once I got it all exhaustively assembled, the hose exploded. LOL! I have 2 other ends in the repair kit so I will experiment further. The hose is already trash so I've only lost the $10 for the kit. Cheap entertainment.
