Description
Overview:
This 3.1/2" (89 mm) female to 3" (76 mm) hose tail is a galvanised steel lever-lock hose fitting for connecting hose to pipework or equipment. The female end accepts a matching lever-lock male coupling, while the ribbed 3" (76 mm) tail provides a secure grip inside the hose when used with suitable clamps or banding. The galvanised finish resists rust and wear in outdoor and wet environments, making it a solid choice for site pumps, bowsers, irrigation lines, slurry handling, and general fluid transfer. It is suited to low to medium-pressure water and compatible non-aggressive liquids often found in construction, agriculture, and industrial maintenance. Designated S78 and supplied under MPN 474 300, it is straightforward to fit and reliable in daily use.
Key Features:
- Galvanised steel body for strong corrosion resistance and long service life in outdoor conditions
- 3.1/2" (89 mm) female lever-lock end for rapid connection to a matching male coupling
- 3" (76 mm) ribbed hose tail for secure clamping with worm-drive or band clamps
- Robust construction suited to demanding site work and frequent handling
- Quick to connect and disconnect, helping reduce downtime on pumps and pipe runs
- Smooth internal flow path to support efficient fluid transfer
- Suitable for water, slurry and other non-aggressive fluids commonly used on site and farm
- Ideal for new installs or as a direct replacement in existing lever-lock systems
- Cost-effective way to adapt pipework to hose where a size step from 3.1/2" to 3" is needed
Typical Applications:
Connecting layflat or reinforced hose to dewatering pumps, tankers and bowsers, irrigation and slurry lines, site washdown, dust suppression, and general fluid transfer. Common on construction sites, agricultural setups, civil engineering projects, and plant hire fleets where quick coupling and durability are important. Suitable for temporary and semi-permanent pipe-to-hose transitions.
