Description

High Capacity. Direct Faucet Connection.

The 3/4" Easy Loc Female Hose Start allows you to connect high-flow 3/4" Poly Tubing directly to any standard outdoor water source. Whether you are attaching to a spigot, a garden hose, or a hose-end timer, this adapter provides a secure start for larger irrigation zones that require more water volume.

Equipped with a 3/4" Female Hose Thread (FHT) Swivel, this fitting rotates freely, allowing you to screw it onto your faucet without twisting the entire length of heavy-duty tubing. The opposing end features a robust Easy Loc collar that locks onto the tubing for a leak-proof seal capable of handling system pressure. To guarantee this stability and protect your components from surges, we recommend installing a pressure regulator at the source.

Why Choose Easy Loc Technology?
  • Swivel Convenience: The female end spins independently, making installation on fixed spigots or timers effortless.
  • High-Flow Design: Specifically engineered for 3/4" tubing to maximize flow rates for larger gardens or long runs.
  • Secure Locking Technology: The locking nut screws over the tubing, compressing it against the internal barb. This ensures the connection holds tight even under pressure.
  • Fully Reusable: If you need to move the connection, simply unscrew the swivel from the faucet and unlock the collar from the tubing.
  • UV & Chemical Resistant: Molded from high-grade polypropylene to withstand harsh sunlight and outdoor elements.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to connect your 3/4" mainline to the faucet.

Step 1: Check the Washer
Ensure the rubber hose washer is seated inside the 3/4" Female Swivel end. This creates the seal against the faucet. Do not use thread seal tape on hose threads.

Step 2: Connect to Source
Screw the swivel end onto your spigot, timer, or vacuum breaker. Hand-tighten until snug.

Step 3: Prep Tubing
Cut your 3/4" poly tubing squarely. Rotate the Easy Loc locking collar backwards to expose the barb.

Step 4: Lock it Down
Push the 3/4" tubing firmly over the barb until it hits the stop. Twist the locking collar forward (over the tubing) to clamp the connection.

✔ Compatibility Check

Check your size requirements:

  • Inlet (Source): Fits standard 3/4" Garden Hose Threads (GHT).
  • It will NOT fit Pipe Threads (NPT/PVC) without an adapter.
  • Outlet (Tubing): Fits standard 3/4" Poly Tubing (.940" OD).
  • It will NOT fit 1/2" Tubing.

Complete Your System

Build a robust head assembly with these essential components:

  • Water Timer: Automate your system by attaching a timer to the faucet first.
  • Filter: Protect your emitters from debris (Choose a 3/4" Hose Thread model).
  • Pressure Regulator: Ensure safe operating pressure for your drip system.
  • 3/4" Poly Tubing: The high-capacity mainline for this adapter.
