How to Design a Winter Garden: Color, Texture, and Cold-Hardy Plants

The Male Hose x 3/4" PVC Elbow is a versatile adapter designed to transition your rigid Schedule 40 PVC pipe directly into a standard garden hose connection. By gluing the slip end onto your pipe, you essentially create a permanent, 90-degree "faucet" or connection point anywhere in your system. This is perfect for installing a Hose Y with Valve, a hose-end timer, or simply attaching a garden hose to a remote irrigation line.
Unlike standard plumbing parts found at big-box stores, this specialty fitting combines a 3/4" Slip socket with 3/4" Male Hose Threads (MHT) in a single, compact unit. It is one of our most problem-solving irrigation fittings for greenhouse manifolds, hose bib assemblies, and custom watering stations where you need to turn a corner and adapt to hose threads simultaneously.

Step 1: Prepare the Pipe
Cut your 3/4" PVC pipe square and remove any burrs. Clean the pipe and the inside of the fitting's slip socket with primer.
Step 2: Glue the Connection
Apply PVC Glue to the outside of the pipe and the inside of the fitting socket. Push the fitting onto the pipe, twisting a quarter turn, and hold for 30 seconds to set.
Step 3: Attach Hose Accessory
Once the glue has cured, you can screw a garden hose, timer, or cap onto the threaded male end. Ensure a hose washer is present in the female accessory you are attaching to prevent leaks.
