Alternative fittings
« on: May 10, 2023, 03:03:22 pm »
Hi guys' looking for recommendations for alternatives to the rectus 21 fittings' they are coming apart with the slightest pull on the hose its driving me mad. Ps because i use my pole extension quite a lot the slick connector isn't suitable as it wouldn't go through the pole end cap. Cheers

Are you buying genuine Parker Hannifin connectors ?
the cheapo copies never last very long

Why do you drag them along the ground?
