Gilmour 800344-1001 Garden Hose Mender 3/4 Inch Brass

Product Description

The GILMOUR 800344-1001 is a 3/4-inch brass garden hose mender designed to repair damaged or severed sections of standard garden hose. The fitting restores a hose to full working condition without requiring hose replacement. Constructed from solid brass, it resists corrosion and handles repeated outdoor use across watering, irrigation, and general utility applications. The 3/4-inch thread size matches the most common residential and light commercial hose diameters. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced DIYers install this type of fitting as a straightforward field repair.

This hose mender is suited for residential and light commercial irrigation setups where a hose has been cut, cracked, or otherwise compromised. It connects two hose ends using standard 3/4-inch threaded fittings, making it compatible with typical garden and utility hose configurations. Its compact size and single-package format make it a practical addition to a service truck or maintenance kit for quick on-site repairs.

Key Features

• 3/4-inch thread size fits the most common garden hose diameter
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance for outdoor and wet environments
• Compact mender format allows field repair without full hose replacement
• Single-unit packaging suited for individual repair jobs or stocking service kits

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style mender fitting for standard 3/4-inch threaded garden hoses used in residential and light commercial irrigation applications.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply completely before cutting or disconnecting the damaged hose section. A hose cutter or sharp utility knife produces the cleanest cut for proper mender seating. Hand-tighten the mender fittings first, then snug with pliers — avoid overtightening brass fittings, which can crack or strip threads. Inspect the repair under pressure before returning the line to service.
