Description
This hose fittings set is five pieces: quick-connect couplings and a tap adaptor that snap onto 12mm hose in seconds, plus a trigger nozzle that switches between five spray patterns from a fine mist to a strong jet, for $23.99.
Hose fittings are the part of a garden setup nobody thinks about until one splits, and then nothing works. A tap adaptor with a perished washer sprays water sideways at your ankles; a coupling that will not release means unscrewing the whole thing every time you swap from the sprinkler to the nozzle. Replacing the set rather than the failed piece is usually cheaper and always faster, because mixed brands of quick-connect do not reliably mate with each other.

Why Replace the Whole Set
-
Quick-connects must match - mixing brands is the most common reason a coupling leaks or will not lock, so a matched set solves it outright.
-
Five patterns from one nozzle - mist for seedlings, jet for the driveway, and everything between, without swapping heads.
-
Snap on in seconds - swap from sprinkler to nozzle without unscrewing anything at the tap.
-
Standard 12mm - the common Australian domestic hose size, so it fits what is already on the reel.
-
Cheaper than a plumber's trip - the whole set costs less than most single branded nozzles.
Which Hose Size Does This Fit?
Standard 12mm garden hose, which is the most common domestic size in Australia. Check what is written on your hose or measure the internal diameter. An 18mm hose, which some older or heavy-duty setups use, needs a different fitting size.
What Are the Five Spray Patterns?
The nozzle adjusts across a range from a fine mist through to a strong concentrated jet, with intermediate patterns between. In practice you use the mist for seedlings and pot plants, a shower or cone for established garden beds, and the jet for washing a car, rinsing a path or clearing gutters within reach.
Do Quick-Connects Fit Any Tap?
The tap adaptor in this set screws onto a standard threaded garden tap. Some older Australian taps and some outdoor taps have unusual threads or no thread at all, which need an additional adaptor from a hardware store. Check your tap before ordering if it looks non-standard.
Who Buys These
People whose hose fittings have finally perished, which in Australian sun happens every few summers. Renters setting up a hose at a new place. Anyone consolidating a mismatched collection of couplings that half work. It also sells as a cheap complete replacement when someone has bought a new hose and discovered the old fittings will not mate with it.
Pair It With
Our Home & Garden range covers the watering and garden supplies, Tools & Hardware has the rest of the outdoor gear, and if the hose is going to a dog rather than a garden, the 1m sprinkler splash mat connects to the same fitting.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many pieces are in the set?
Five.
What hose size does it fit?
Standard 12mm garden hose.
Is a hose included?
No. The set is the fittings and the nozzle.
How many spray patterns does the nozzle have?
Five, from a fine mist to a strong jet.
Will it fit my tap?
The adaptor suits a standard threaded garden tap. Unusual or unthreaded taps need an extra adaptor.
Can I mix these with my existing fittings?
Quick-connect systems vary between brands. A matched set is far more reliable than mixing.
Do you ship Australia wide?
Yes, including regional and remote addresses.
Fast Australian Shipping
We dispatch from Australia, so this set reaches Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra and Darwin quickly, and we post to regional and remote addresses as well.

Product photography is indicative and a hose is not included. Colours may vary slightly between screens and the item in hand, and hand measured dimensions carry a small tolerance. Observe your local water restrictions when watering or washing.
