WEDGIT HOSE AND CONNECTORS

If you have a garden, you probably own a hosepipe. It’s probably also perished, kinks easily, and leaks, if not from the hose itself then definitely around the connection points.

Wedgit is a hose and coupling brand that has been designed by South Africans and manufactured here to cope with our harsh climatic conditions. The African sun is definitely unique, and powerful, and imported brands often simply can’t withstand our unrelenting environment.

Wedgit hose couplings are tough, made from a higher-grade UV-stabilised polymer than normal.

They have fewer moving parts, and they boast superior mechanical strength and rigidity when compared to competitors. While even a young child will have the strength to connect a Wedgit coupling to a tap or accessory, the hose nut has an unrivalled bond to the hose, resulting in no leaks and wasted water.

Tested up to a pressure of 17 bar (three-times that of the municipal water supply), the leak-free Wedgit connectors and couplings are available for both 12 mm (½”) and 19 mm (¾”) garden-hose diameters, forming a connection that’s strong enough to tow a car – yep, that test has been done! And if you use the Wedgit Converter Cap, the coupling technology is compatible with most sprayers and nozzles.

Made from UV-stabilised and heavy-metal-free materials, the nine-sided Wedgit garden hose has a 10-year design life. Available in 12 and 19 mm diameters, these hoses are made to be highly kink-resistant, and withstand pressures of up to

35 and 28 bar respectively.
