which brass hose connector as replacement

There was a brass connection suggested by Amazon when I placed the order. It worked fine and prevented hose leaking. I can't be anymore specific as the unit is currently at our vacation home.

If you look just under the picture of the AR383 under 'frequently bought together', you'll see a brass fitting by Nelson for $8.99.The official name is 'Nelson industrial Brass Pipe and Hose fitting with dual swivel for male to male hose, double female'Would highly recommend getting this.Warren

I didn't buy brass hose connector. The original plastic one still works well.

Currently there is a plastic filter that connects to the unit and a plastic connector that goes on to the supply hose. Together they are a quick connect/disconnect pair. Both are supplied and you do not need another piece. However, if one of them were to break, then you will need a brass female - female fitting to connect to the male receptacle on the unit and the male end of the water supply hose.

I have had no issues w/ leaking yet. I did use pipe tape to help the fitting to better seal. So, I have not even bothered getting a fitting as mine has been fine

I got this one but haven't needed it yet: Nelson Industrial Brass Pipe and Hose Fitting with Dual Swivel for Male Hose to Male Hose, Double Female 50574

I would suggest not purchasing the adapters listed on Amazon. As per AR Blue Clean's website: 3. It is important to understand that your AR Blue Clean power washer has METRIC threads on the water inlet. The clear adapter also has METRIC threads and therefore must be screwed on to the water inlet. 4. The blue/blue adapter has US threads and must be attached to the end of the garden hose which also has US threads. If you use the Us thread adapter to connect two male hose ends together, you will strip the threads on the actual cleaner (since you don't use the quick release plastic parts any more) as the threads on the cleaner are metric threads.. You can buy an adapter from AR Blue Clean's web site which should address this issue.

Yes, use the one that came with it. A little Teflon tape & don't over tighten the fitting. Treat a tool properly & you will get many use's from it. This is Not a heavy duty or commercial unit. Treat it as such & you will get many years from it. IMO.

Yes, not metal, but works fine. But don't buy any other connectors, for example "People who bought this also bought..." and they show you a brass hose connector, I bought it, it didn't fit, my bad, so I have another connector in my plumbing tool kit!!

Indeed 3/4" OD thread seems to be bigger than the replacement hose. But you could get a reduction (that's a brass piece with i.e. 3/4" outside thread at one end and a nipple wide enough to fit the replacement hose on the other). Those are available at the hardware store; and if it's a good hardware store the people there can help you out to get really what you need. Good luck; I hope this helps! :-)

The hose attaches through a quick connect/ release. So should be able to replace.

Replacement hose can be ordered directly from mfg. I just ordered one. Be careful to order a "Q" or an "M" depending on what connector you have. $9.95 plus shipping.

Yes, you can connect the two together, but you might need to obtain an additional brass fitting depending what type of hose you have. Can be found at any good hardware store. Be sure to use GAS rated Teflon tape (yellow), not water pipe (white).

If you look for it online and type in replacement hose, I'm sure you can find one. Or home depot if you have one.

Found many listings for hose's on Amazons site. That said save yourself a problem and buy one made of metal not the plastic that these come with. I have had to replace 4 already over the last 3 years due to the connector breaking.

The connection on the unit is a male hose thread. Since the end of the hose you use is also a male hose thread you must have an adapter that will go from male-to-male. One comes with the unit but I had numerous leak problems with mine. Since it was plastic when I moved the unit, pulling the hose along, the threads would loosen then leak. I purchase a brass one instead at a local home store and that solved the problem.

From the ManufacturerThe LR Nelson Hose Quick Connectors make connecting garden hoses a breeze. Each pack comes with one female and one male connector, and are designed to fit standard garden hoses, outdoor faucets, and watering products. ??? you have not supplied enough information. this is not a shower hose coupling and I think it would be foolish to try to "adapt" it. find the right one. you need the size and thread pitch.

If anyone wants to know the answer to this older question, Jon would have to purchase this: Gilmour 3/4-Inch Brass Double Male Hose Connector 7MH7MP5P

I use a quick connect, Nelson 50336 Brass Hose Quick Connectors Set, Male and Female and never have to worry about it.

I would buy Australian regulators. The hoses have a threaded connector, that is pretty common. I'm sure a welding or plumbing supplier will be able to make an adapter fitting.

You can use the sleeve adapter the connect it with the OEM hose attached to canister. Connecting the canister requires a clip lock on the hose which this doesn't have.

Get a brass 3/4" mnpt to 3/4" male hose thread and it will work. About $1 at hardware store, they will have it as its a very common part.

John,The are just quick connect/disconnects devices and will work with any hose with standard hose threading! Bob

Not sure you"ll find a brass replacement for this fitting. It's looks pretty custom. And, on mine, the plastic tip of the hose which connects into the fitting is looking more worn than the fitting itself. Mine's still working fine, but I think it's a losing battle to try to make this unit more than it is -- a cheap shower hose extension -- lucky to get a year+ out of...
