Hi there
Can anyone recommend a good 8mm straight coupler connector for pole hose please?

Thank you

Thanks for the reply but it's actually a quick connect type I'm after rather than a clamped one.

Sorry I didn't make that clear

Alternatively you have exceeded slick connect, but I have had them break on me so I moved to the tuff connect

I'm good friends with Mat so he's probably a little biased in my favour ?

@Stratf01 I'm not sure I've quite understood what you mean but I use these from Gardiner and they are very good

I'm biased myself with being one of your early testers for the TuffTap, I see Mark Munro has had something designed similar to your heavy-duty protector, at a glance it doesn't look as well designed as yours

To join the pole hose the Gardiner straight connectors are fine.
I’m not sure what you are referring to either.
As regards joining your pole hose and micrbore I will second @Iron Giant . @Skxawng connectors are the best. They are worth every penny. I have not had to replace my rectus fittings for over 2 years which is a massive bonus due to these connections. I’ve just recommended them to a local windie.

Thanks so much guys.
Its the Gardiner straight connector type I was looking for.
Really appreciate the help.
