I need a fitting/ adapter that fits onto my hose reel from my pump. The connection on the hose reel is a thin metal male inlet which spins when the hose reel spins. I need to connect a hozelock fitting onto this. Is there some type of adapter fitting and what is it called.

Thanks

 
Love to help dude but dont recognise the fitting, I'm a bodger anyway so would just heat a hose and push it on, clamp it and job would be a gooden.

 
Same as above,I'd bodge it,micro bore 8 mm hose or mini hose off ro units,slide into one another off ya hose n jubilee all together to make a reducer,just a fawt what I'd do

 
Ignore those jokers they don't know what they are rambling on about /emoticons/tongue.png.

What I would do is jumble clip hose on to a male hozelock nipple. Then I would use a female connection. That will me you can use the hose reel /emoticons/wink.png

Gardiner poles systems do quick lock metal connectors. I strongly recommend you fit those.

Thanks for the replies. I would have jubilee clipped it but as it will be spinning a lot I didn't think it would last.

So do you mean that I should get one of these and it will fit onto the reel

Jubilee clip onto the hose reel shaft.

Then match with that nipple.

Ideally you want half inch not 5mm.

I know what you are saying. But i don't think you have much choice.

The connection that will wear out will be the nipple and female connector. Not the hose/jubilee connection.
