Honeywell GB-001 Brass Hose Coupling Mender

Product Description

The HONEYWELL GB-001 is a female brass hose coupling mender designed to repair damaged or severed garden hose ends. This fitting accepts a 0.5 inch female connection and uses a clincher-style sleeve to secure the hose without the need for special crimp tools. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and handles typical residential water line pressures. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and experienced DIYers install this type of fitting when a hose end is cracked, split, or otherwise unusable. It restores full hose function without replacing the entire hose assembly.

The GB-001 is suited for residential garden hose repair applications. It connects to standard 0.5 inch female garden hose threads and is installed at the point of damage on a standard rubber or reinforced vinyl garden hose. Typical use cases include repairing hoses at the spigot end or at mid-line splits. The clincher design makes field installation straightforward with minimal tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply completely before cutting or removing the damaged hose end. Insert the hose into the clincher fitting and secure the sleeve firmly using pliers or a hose clamp tool as required by the fitting design. Verify there are no leaks at operating pressure before returning the line to service.
