A hosetail is designed to securely connect a flexible hose to a rigid pipe, pump or other equipment. The hosetail is made with a specially designed end, which attaches to the hose, and a threaded or flanged end that connects to the pipe or pump. This helps to prevent hosetails from slipping off when clamped. This ensures secure and leak-free joins, which helps keep high pressures contained and is essential to pump system safety and performance. A hosetail can work with the flexible hose to absorb some of the pump’s vibration, which can help reduce wear and tear on the system.
Hosetails are classed as either male or female, depending on how they are designed to fit to the pipe, and are usually made from brass, stainless steel or robust plastic. The choice between male and female will depend on your planned application and specific setup.
