Irrigation Hose to Female-Thread Adapter

This irrigation hose to female-thread adapter joins a compatible hose to a male-thread irrigation component. The hose-tail end inserts into the hose, while the female socket accepts the matching male connection. Select the hose and thread sizes together when planning a supply line or replacing an existing connection.

Available hose and thread combinations

• 32 mm hose size x 1 inch female thread
• 40 mm hose size x 1 1/4 inch female thread
• 50 mm hose size x 1 1/2 inch female thread
• 63 mm hose size x 2 inch female thread
• 75 mm hose size x 2 1/2 inch female thread
• 90 mm hose size x 3 inch female thread
• 110 mm hose size x 4 inch female thread

Check the hose and threaded outlet

Compare the selected hose-tail size with the actual hose dimensions and wall construction. The inch value describes the threaded connection, not the hose diameter. Confirm whether your hose measurement is internal or external before selecting an insert fitting.

Check the male outlet's thread standard separately. The same nominal inch size can appear on different thread forms, and BSP and NPT fittings should not be treated as interchangeable. Compare the existing connection before ordering a replacement.

Fit the adapter without straining the hose

1. Isolate the water supply and release pressure before removing the old fitting.
2. Cut the hose end cleanly and inspect it for splits or deformation.
3. Check that the female socket starts squarely on the matching male thread. Use a suitable sealing method for that connection.
4. Seat the hose fully on the hose tail and choose compatible clamping hardware where required.
5. Support the hose and test the assembled joint with water before covering the connection.

Common questions

Does the thread size tell me which hose to use?

No. Each option pairs a metric hose size with a separate inch thread size. Match both sides of the connection.

Can I use a smaller drip-tube adapter instead?

Choose a fitting sized for the actual hose. Small drip-tubing adapters serve a different connection range and are not substitutes for these larger hose-tail options.

Browse hose fittings for matching connections.
