Quick connector set

I use quick connect couplers too. Otherwise things like hooking up the hose to the power washer I can`t do myself it takes two hands. So I have couplers on everything that attaches to the hose. It obviously has to restrict some flow because that hole is definitely smaller than your hose. That said I don`t notice it when using any thing with them.
 
I have these, too, and love the rubber grips, but now I`m using the Eley quick connect system, which doesn`t work with these.
 
Just don`t use the Female ones with the plastic rings for hose-end stuff (e.g., foamgun) as it`s easy to accidentally uncouple them and have something launch under pressure. I *can* certainly see using them for the spigot/sillcock hookup if you undo it frequently.

I have a scad of the Male fittings, and a quick look makes it easy to see which ones have a restrictive bore size. Some do, some don`t, and the diff can be pretty significant.
 
I`ve looked around some, and these are high end. Better quality than most.
Good tolerance allowances, w/ tight fit so less movement. Thick metal.
The rubberizing makes a dif. with wet hands.
:D
