Honeywell JR0982 Metal Hose Mender 5/8 or 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The HONEYWELL JR0982 is a metal hose mender designed to repair split, cracked, or damaged garden hoses at the 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch size. The fitting is constructed from metal with a solid brass body and secured using a patented posi-clamp system. Noncorroding, high-grade stainless steel screws resist stripping during tightening, which is a common failure point with lower-grade repair fittings. The assembly creates a leakproof connection and is fully reusable, making it a practical field repair option for irrigation and outdoor water supply lines. Only a knife and screwdriver are required for installation.

This hose mender is suited for residential and light commercial irrigation, garden water supply, and outdoor hose maintenance. It is a direct-repair solution for service professionals and property maintenance personnel who need a reliable, tool-minimal fix for standard garden hose sizes. The dual-size compatibility covers the two most common hose diameters in use, reducing the need to stock multiple SKUs.

Key Features

• Solid brass body construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• Patented posi-clamp design provides a leakproof, impact-resistant seal
• High-grade stainless steel screws will not strip during tightening
• Compatible with both 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch hose diameters
• Reusable design allows for multiple installations or adjustments
• Requires only a knife and screwdriver — no special tools needed

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style hose mender for standard 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch garden and irrigation hoses.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by cutting the damaged hose section cleanly with a knife, inserting the brass mender barb into both cut ends, and securing the posi-clamp with a standard screwdriver. Shut off the water supply at the source before beginning any hose repair. Ensure the cut is straight and clean to achieve a leakproof seal. Tighten the clamp screws firmly but do not overtighten, as the stainless steel screws are designed for hand-tool torque only.
