Honeywell 55056 Poly Y-connector Hose Shutoff Valve

Product Description

The HONEYWELL 55056 is a poly Y-connector shutoff valve designed for faucet-to-hose and hose-to-hose applications. The Y-configuration allows two hose lines to run from a single water source, with independent shutoff control on each outlet. Built from poly construction, it is lightweight and resistant to corrosion. The integrated swivel coupling makes threading the connector onto a faucet or hose bib straightforward without cross-threading or fighting stiff connections. It is sized for standard residential hose fittings and suited for irrigation, garden, and general outdoor water supply setups. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and knowledgeable DIYers install this type of fitting as part of routine outdoor plumbing connections.

The 55056 is used in residential outdoor water supply applications where splitting a single spigot into two hose lines is required. The swivel coupling design prevents the connected hose from twisting and kinking during installation, which reduces wear on hose threads and fittings over time. Typical installations include garden hose splitting at an exterior hose bib, connecting two irrigation zones from one faucet, or general utility water supply configurations. The poly body keeps the overall assembly weight low at 0.118 pounds.

Key Features

• Y-configuration splits one water source into two hose outlets
• Swivel coupling prevents hose twisting and kinking during connection
• Poly construction resists corrosion for outdoor use
• Lightweight at 0.118 pounds for easy handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit connector for standard residential outdoor hose bib and garden hose applications using common hose thread fittings.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply at the faucet before connecting or disconnecting the Y-connector. Hand-tighten the swivel coupling onto the faucet or hose thread, then snug with pliers if needed — avoid overtightening poly fittings, as this can crack the body. Inspect the internal washers for wear if leaking occurs at the connection point after installation. This fitting is intended for cold-water outdoor use only.
