Gilmour 871524-1001 Male Garden Hose Coupler 3/4 in Brass

Product Description

The GILMOUR 871524-1001 is a male brass garden hose coupler designed to connect and disconnect hose sections or hose-end accessories quickly and securely. Constructed from solid brass, this coupler resists corrosion and withstands repeated outdoor use. The 3/4-inch male thread matches the standard garden hose thread (GHT) found on the vast majority of residential and light commercial hose bibs, spigots, and faucet connections. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced DIYers install this type of fitting when establishing or repairing hose supply lines in lawn, garden, and general outdoor water distribution setups.

This coupler is suited for residential and light commercial outdoor water supply applications including garden irrigation, landscape maintenance, pressure washer feed lines, and utility wash-down stations. It threads directly onto standard 3/4-inch GHT fittings and accepts compatible female quick-connect or threaded hose ends. The brass construction makes it appropriate for applications where durability and leak resistance are priorities over a longer service life than plastic alternatives.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and long-term durability
• 3/4-inch male thread compatible with standard garden hose thread (GHT) connections
• Male connector type for straightforward attachment to female hose ends or faucet couplers
• Compact form factor suitable for tight installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement male hose coupler for standard 3/4-inch garden hose thread (GHT) applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with adjustable pliers — avoid over-tightening, which can crack fittings or distort threads. Shut off the water supply at the source before removing or installing any hose coupler. Wrap male threads with PTFE thread seal tape for a leak-free connection if required by the fitting. This type of coupler does not require special trade licensing but should be installed in accordance with local plumbing codes where applicable.
