Description

Seamlessly Transition from Tubing to Hose Accessories.

Ending a run of heavy-duty poly tubing has never been easier. The 3/4" Easy Loc x Male Hose End adapter provides a secure, reusable termination point for your 3/4" mainline, presenting a standard 3/4" Male Hose Thread (MHT).

This fitting offers the best of both worlds: an Easy Loc collar to grip your solid poly tubing securely, and a standard Garden Hose Thread to attach flush valves, end caps, or even extend your system with a garden hose. It creates a leak-proof transition without the need for hose clamps, glues, or solvents.

Why Choose Easy Loc Technology?
  • Secure Locking Technology: The locking nut screws over the tubing, compressing it against the barb. This "Easy Loc" mechanism holds tight even under pressure variations.
  • Perfect for Flushing: Ideal for the end of a mainline. Simply attach a Hose Thread Flush Valve or Cap to this fitting for easy system maintenance.
  • Fully Reusable: The fitting can be unlocked and removed in seconds. This is essential for seasonal farms or gardens where lines are pulled up and stored during winter.
  • Tool-Free Installation: No clamps, ratchets, or hot water required. The large, textured nuts are designed for easy hand-tightening.
  • UV & Chemical Resistant: Molded from high-grade polypropylene with UV stabilizers, these fittings resist cracking from sun exposure and are chemically inert to standard fertilizers.
Technical Specifications

Understanding compatibility is key. This fitting connects poly tubing to threaded accessories.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to ensure a leak-proof connection on your poly tubing.

Step 1: Prepare Tubing
Cut your 3/4" polyethylene tubing squarely with scissors or tubing cutters. Ensure the cut is clean and free of burrs.

Step 2: Unlock the Fitting
Rotate the locking collar on the Easy Loc side backwards (towards the center threads) to expose the internal barb. Do not remove the nut completely.

Step 3: Connect Tubing
Push your poly tubing firmly over the barb until it hits the stop. It may require a wiggling motion to get over the barb lip.

Step 4: Lock it Down
Twist the locking collar forward (over the tubing) to clamp it in place. Hand-tighten firmly.

✔ Compatibility Check

Check your threads and tubing sizes carefully:

  • Side 1 (Threads): This is Male Hose Thread (MHT). It acts like a faucet. It connects to Female accessories (Caps, Valves, or the female end of a Garden Hose). It will NOT screw directly onto a faucet.
  • Side 2 (Tubing): Fits standard 3/4" Poly Tubing (.940" OD).
  • It will NOT fit 1/2" Tubing (.700" OD).
  • It will NOT fit flat Drip Tape.

Complete Your System
