Description

Secure Sealing. Prevent Unwanted Leaks.

The 3/4" Plastic Hose Cap is an essential accessory for any gardener or irrigation professional. Designed with standard 3/4" Female Hose Threads (FHT), this durable cap creates a water-tight seal on any outdoor faucet, spigot, or water timer outlet. Whether you are closing off one side of a hose Y-splitter or winterizing your system to keep debris out, this cap provides a reliable solution.

As one of the most fundamental irrigation fittings in our inventory, the Hose Cap comes complete with a hose washer to ensure a drip-free connection. It is constructed from high-impact plastic, making it resistant to rust and corrosion typically seen with metal caps.

Why Choose This Hose Cap?
  • Leak-Proof Design: Includes a high-quality rubber hose washer that compresses against the spigot rim to stop water flow completely.
  • Universal Fit: Compatible with any standard 3/4" Male Hose Thread (MHT) connection found on garden hoses, spigots, and manifold filters.
  • Durable Construction: Made from UV-resistant ABS plastic, it withstands sun exposure and temperature fluctuations better than cheap brittle plastics.
  • Tool-Free Installation: The ribbed or textured exterior allows for easy hand-tightening without the need for wrenches.
  • Winterization Essential: Perfect for capping off open lines or faucet outlets during the off-season to prevent bugs and dirt from entering your plumbing.

How to Install: A Quick Guide

Achieve a water-tight seal in seconds.

Step 1: Check the Washer
Ensure the included rubber washer is seated flat at the bottom of the cap. If it is missing or damaged, the cap will leak.

Step 2: Align Threads
Place the cap over the 3/4" Male Hose Thread outlet (e.g., your faucet or hose Y). Ensure it is not cross-threaded.

Step 3: Tighten
Twist the cap clockwise until it is snug against the outlet. Hand-tighten only. Using pliers may crack the plastic or damage the threads.
