Hose fittings
Hose fittings are connectors and adaptors used to join, direct or adapt flexible hoses within marine plumbing systems. They provide secure, leak-resistant connections between hoses, valves, through-hull fittings and accessories for water, wastewater and other onboard fluid applications.

What types of hose fittings are included?
Typical hose fittings in this category include:
- Straight hose adaptors and couplers
- Elbows and angled fittings for routing hoses
- Reducers and expanders to match different diameters
- Branch connectors and tees
These fittings allow you to create reliable hose runs tailored to your boat’s plumbing layout.
Where are hose fittings used on a boat?
Hose fittings are used throughout onboard systems, such as:
- Freshwater and washdown installations
- Toilets and sanitary systems
- Grey water and bilge discharge lines
- Connections to ball valves, through-hull fittings and pumps
They help guide flow direction, change hose sizes, branch pipe runs and ensure tight, secure connections in confined installations.
How are hose fittings installed?
Hose fittings are typically inserted into the end of a hose and secured with hose clamps or compatible connectors to ensure a tight seal. It’s important to choose fittings that match the hose diameter and application, and to use marine-grade clamps for corrosion resistance and strength.
How to choose the right hose fitting
When selecting a hose fitting, consider:
- The diameter of hose you’re connecting
- Whether you need a directional change, size transition or branch connection
- Compatibility with clamps and adjacent fittings
- A proper match ensures a leak-free and durable system.
