[Help] Trying to connect a 1 inch hose

[Jack Straw]

to a standard 3/4 inch outside tap. I though I would google 3/4 inch female thread to a 1inch barb, and bingo. Not the case, though.


Can NSC succeed where Google has failed?

Another, and fail-safe method would be to get a normal 3/4" hose connector for the tap;

With a jubilee clip, secure a small bit of 1/2" hose pipe to this, and fit a 1/2" Geka hose tail to the other end.

You could use a "Hoselock" type tap connector and use a Hoselock push fitting instead of a Geka.

On your 1" hose, fit a 1" Geka hose tail.

Twist the two couplings together - done.
100% winner.

I'm now going to Google "Reduced female bush". You've got me interested!

Please don't.

Too late. Totally disappointed.
