Description

Universal PVC to Hose Conversion. Dual-Fit Design.

The PVC Glue-In Hose End Adapter is a versatile problem-solver that bridges the gap between rigid PVC pipe and standard garden hose connections. Featuring a unique "dual-fit" PVC side, this adapter can either slip over 1/2" PVC pipe or glue inside a 3/4" PVC fitting. This flexibility allows you to easily create a hose filter connection, a drain point, or a supply line feed anywhere in your manifold.

Available in two configurations—Male Hose Thread (MHT) for creating an outlet, or Female Hose Thread (FHT) Swivel for connecting to a water source—these adapters are among our most adaptable irrigation fittings. The female swivel version is particularly prized for allowing you to attach rigid PVC directly to a spigot without the entire pipe assembly needing to rotate.

Why Choose These Adapters?
  • Dual-Size PVC Connection: One fitting offers two installation methods: Solvent weld it onto 1/2" pipe (Slip) or into a 3/4" fitting hub (Spigot).
  • Swivel Option (Female Only): The FHT model features a spinning collar, making it easy to screw onto a faucet or hose end without twisting your PVC pipe.
  • Durable Construction: Manufactured by Irritec from high-quality PVC, ensuring a strong chemical bond with standard plumbing glues.
  • Seamless Transitions: The cleanest way to convert a hard-piped PVC system into a removable hose-thread system.

How to Install: A Step-by-Step Guide

This fitting uses solvent welding. Choose your PVC method:

Method A: Connecting to 1/2" Pipe
Apply PVC Glue to the inside of the adapter and the outside of the 1/2" pipe. Slide the adapter over the pipe and hold.

Method B: Connecting to a 3/4" Fitting
Apply glue to the outside of the adapter (the spigot end) and the inside of your 3/4" PVC fitting (like a Tee or Elbow). Insert the adapter fully into the hub and hold.

Important for Female Swivel:
If installing the FHT model, ensure the swivel collar is free to rotate and no glue drips into the swivel mechanism.

✔ Selection Guide

Which model do you need?

  • Male Hose (MHT): Choose this to create an OUTLET. Acts like a faucet. Connects to garden hoses or female caps.
  • Female Hose (FHT): Choose this to create an INLET. Connects onto a faucet or male hose end.

Complete Your System

Don't forget these installation essentials:

  • Blue Hot PVC Glue: Required for bonding to your PVC pipe or fittings.
  • Hose Washers: Critical for the female swivel end to seal against a faucet.
  • Hose Cap: Seal off your new male hose outlet when not in use.
  • Drip Tape: A common destination for headers built with these adapters.
