Guyco hose tails are also known as directors and are used with flexible hose to provide a BSPT threaded fitting so that the hose can be connected to a valve, another fitting or even a pump.
They are Australian designed and manufactured for Australian conditions and are commonly applied to marine, horticultural, agricultural, plumbing and irrigation of non-volatile fluids, where a cost effective long life fitting is required.
Precision heavy duty BSPT threads reduce the potential of spiral leakage and a convenient hexagonal design allows for simple installation with minimal tools.
They are manufactured from materials suitable for use with potable water which are a strong, durable construction in Glass Fibre Reinforced Nylon to maintain thread integrity.
Hose clamps are recommended with the installation.
