These colour-coded hose connectors have been developed to simplify the selection of matching watering con-nectors. While consumers are often not aware that hoses and connectors come in different sizes, they can now simply follow the colour coding. The hose connector features the same colour as the matching hose to facilitate intuitive pairing: blue for 1/2"–5/8", red for 3/4" and yellow for 3/8". In addition, coated gripping surfaces serve to make the overall handling easier, even when hands are wet.
