Value Collection 12333 Garden Hose Adapter 3/4 X 1/2 Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 12333 is a brass garden hose adapter designed to connect a 3/4-inch female hose thread to a 1/2-inch male hose thread. This fitting serves as a reliable transition piece for irrigation systems, outdoor water supply lines, and general hose connections where thread sizes differ. Machined from solid brass, the adapter resists corrosion and withstands typical outdoor water pressures. It is a compact, single-piece fitting suited for plumbers, irrigation technicians, and maintenance professionals handling hose-to-hose thread conversions in residential and light commercial settings.

This adapter is used wherever a 3/4-inch female hose connection must mate with a 1/2-inch male hose fitting. Common applications include garden hose assemblies, drip irrigation manifolds, outdoor faucet connections, and portable equipment hookups. The fitting is appropriate for both above-ground and surface-level water supply applications where brass construction is specified for durability and thread integrity.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
• 3/4-inch female hose thread inlet mates to standard garden hose connections
• 1/2-inch male hose thread outlet for reduced-size hose or fitting connections
• Compact, single-piece design with no internal components to fail
• UNSPSC Code 40141734 for procurement and cataloging compliance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hose-thread adapter suitable for use with garden hoses, irrigation assemblies, and outdoor water supply fittings that use 3/4-inch female hose and 1/2-inch male hose thread connections.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply completely before installing or removing any hose fitting. Hand-tighten the adapter first, then use an appropriate wrench to snug the connection without overtightening brass threads, which can crack or deform. Apply thread seal tape to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Inspect the connection for leaks after restoring water flow.
