Plastic Hose Repair 1/2", Yellow, Surtek

Simple enough to use. Just unscrew 4 screws, push the barrel into the ends of your hose, put the clamps back in place and tighten the 4 screws... and you're done! As for quality, this thing will outlast your hose. I don't let my hoses freeze with water in them so I don't know how well it would hold up to that, but it gets direct sun most of the day and hasn't shown any signs of getting brittle (but this is just 1 summer). I suggest getting an extra one to have on hand so you can fix a damaged hose immediately. Quick tip: If you have to join two, or more, hoses together, cut the ends off of your hoses and use these couplers to make the connection instead . Yes it's permanent, but you don't have the screw-together connections leaking all over the place.
