This two-way hose connector is a compact Y‑splitter designed to take a single garden tap or hose outlet and distribute water to two hoses. Supplied as a two-piece set, it is primarily used in domestic and light commercial watering tasks where one supply must feed two hoses or accessories, for example when running a sprinkler and a watering wand from the same tap.

The connector features a solid brass body with a chrome-plated finish for weather resistance and reduced surface corrosion. Sealing is provided by replaceable EPDM rubber washers for a reliable, soft-seat seal that resists ageing from exposure to water and sunlight. Thread connections are standard 3/4" BSP garden hose thread, compatible with ISO 228-1 straight (parallel) threads commonly used on UK garden hoses and taps, so it will fit the majority of domestic hoses and fittings without adapters.

Each outlet includes an individual shut-off control, allowing independent on/off operation for each downstream hose. Internal components are brass and nickel-plated where appropriate to limit galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals when connected to steel or plated fittings. The design is suitable for cold-water garden use, irrigation lines, car and boat cleaning, grounds maintenance and temporary site water distribution where pressures are within the normal mains supply range.

Typical users include homeowners, gardeners, groundskeepers, small horticultural and landscaping contractors, caravan and boat owners who need to split a single water supply. The brass construction gives good mechanical strength for everyday handling and connection/disconnection cycles, while the EPDM seals and chrome plating provide notable resistance to the effects of weather and soft water conditions. The 3/4" BSP compatibility ensures wide interchangeability with hose reels, sprinklers and quick‑connect fittings commonly used across the UK.

Duchy Fasteners stocks this two-way hose connector as a 2pc pack, normally supplied in the standard 3/4" BSP size. We also offer spare EPDM washers and bulk quantities for trade users — contact us for availability of alternative pack sizes and complementary hose fittings.
