The Standard Hose Washer is the first line of defense against wasted water in your garden. Designed to fit snugly inside the swivel inlet of any hose shutoff valve, sprinkler, or timer, this durable rubber seal fills the gap between connections to prevent dripping.
Over time, heat and compression can cause old washers to crack or flatten, leading to messy leaks. Replacing them with fresh irrigation fittings like these rubber washers is the simplest maintenance task you can perform to ensure your system runs at full pressure and keeps your shoes dry.

Restore a leak-free seal in seconds.
Step 1: Remove the Old Washer
Check the female swivel end of your hose or timer. If an old washer is stuck inside, use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry it out. Discard if it is hard or cracked.
Step 2: Insert New Washer
Place the fresh rubber washer into the bottom of the threaded swivel. Push it down firmly with your finger to ensure it sits flat against the flange.
Step 3: Connect
Screw your accessory onto the faucet or hose. Hand-tighten until snug. The new rubber will compress to create the seal—do not use pliers!
