Metal Garden Hose Fittings
Connect these fittings to rubber or plastic garden hose for a variety of water supply applications.
Zinc fittings have good corrosion resistance. Brass fittings have good corrosion resistance and are softer than other metal fittings, so they’re easier to thread together.

Plastic Garden Hose Fittings
Made of nylon, these fittings are lighter in weight than metal garden hose fittings. They have excellent impact and abrasion resistance and good corrosion resistance. Connect them to plastic or rubber garden hose for a variety of water supply applications.

Rocker-Lug Fire Hydrant Caps and Plugs
The rocker lugs on these caps and plugs allow for easy gripping, so you can quickly close off fire hydrants and washdown equipment. Tighten with a hook-style spanner wrench (sold separately). Caps and plugs are brass for good corrosion resistance.
NH/NST (National Hose/National Standard) threads are only compatible with other NH/NST threads.
Quick-Access Caps for Pin-Lug Fire Hydrants
These caps are the fastest way to access fire hydrants and washdown equipment. To install them, loop the eyebolts over the pin lugs of the hydrant and secure them in place with nuts. In an emergency, break the cap by hitting it or prying it off with a spanner wrench. Caps are aluminum, which is lightweight with good corrosion resistance.

Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Abrasive Material
Made of ductile iron, these couplings are tough enough to handle sand, cement, and other abrasive solids and slurries. They resist impact and wear better than aluminum and brass couplings. Use their cam-and-groove fittings to quickly connect and disconnect medium- to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket, forming a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately).
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.

Metal Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Water
A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately) that allow you to quickly connect and disconnect medium-to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket to form a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug.
Aluminum couplings are lighter in weight than brass plugs and sockets. They have good abrasion and corrosion resistance thanks to their anodized finish.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.

Couplings with locking levers prevent accidental disconnection. The locks engage automatically when the coupling is connected. Press the locks simultaneously to disengage.
Use safety-venting sockets and caps to prevent the hose from whipping under pressure as you disconnect it. They have two spring-loaded tabs that grab the plug, so you can open the levers to relieve pressure while the hose stays connected. After releasing the pressure, squeeze the tabs to disconnect the plug.

Metal Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Chemicals and Petroleum
Made of metal, these couplings have better durability than plastic cam-and-groove couplings. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately) that allow you to quickly connect and disconnect medium-to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket to form a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug. Couplings are compatible with Andrews, Dixon, Ever-Tite, and PT cam-and-groove couplings.
316 stainless steel fittings have excellent corrosion resistance.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.

Safety-venting sockets and safety-venting caps prevent hose whip if you disconnect your hose under pressure. Two spring-loaded tabs on these sockets hold the plug while the pressure releases. After pressure is released, squeeze the tabs to release the plug.
