Active Aqua 3/4 in Straight Connector

The Active Aqua 3/4 in Straight Connector is a straight barbed fitting for hydroponic irrigation that connects two sections of 3/4-inch inner diameter hose. It solves a very common problem in the grow room: extending a line, repairing a damaged section, or reconfiguring the system without having to redo all the reservoir plumbing.

Benefits

• Connects two sections of 3/4 in inner diameter hose in a straight line.
• Barbed fittings that hold the hose under pressure and reduce the risk of leaks.
• Impact-resistant plastic that is resistant to corrosion from nutrient solutions.
• Compatible with Active Aqua fittings and most standard 3/4 in inner diameter hydroponic connections.
• Reusable cycle after cycle: clean with water and reinstall.

How to use

Cut the hose squarely and push it over each barb until it is fully seated. In pressurized or high-flow systems, add a clamp to each end. Rinse the part with clean water between growing cycles and replace it if you notice cracks or restricted flow.
