Using Hose Repair Parts

Our hose repair parts work great on garden hoses, irrigation hoses, and some types of industrial hoses. Start by locating the damaged section of the hose and using a utility knife to cut that portion away cleanly. Make sure the cut is straight and clean to ensure a good fit with the replacement hose parts. Insert each end of the hose into a mender, then tighten the screws to secure the hose in place. If there are leaks at hose connections, place a hose end washer between the hose and the connector to create a better seal and prevent leaks. After installation, turn on the water to test the repair.

Hose Repair Parts FAQs

What types of hose repair parts are available?

Sprinkler Warehouse offers various hose repair parts, including brass hose repair fittings (male and female connectors, adapters in different sizes), metal hose menders (for repairing or joining hoses), and hose end washers (to prevent leaks at hose connections). These parts are designed for garden hoses and irrigation systems, available in common sizes like ⅝” and ¾”, and can be easily installed using basic tools.

What tools do I need to repair a hose?

To repair a hose, you'll need a utility knife to cut the damaged section of the hose, pliers or a wrench to tighten connectors or clamps, and a screwdriver if screws are involved in securing fittings.

Are metal or plastic hose repair parts better?

Metal hose repair parts are generally more durable and long-lasting than plastic ones. Metal parts are less likely to crack or degrade over time, but plastic parts are lighter and typically more affordable, making them suitable for lighter-duty applications or less demanding environments. Consider metal for high-pressure applications or areas with frequent use.
