Default American garden hose fittings (in the UK)

Technicallly OT as it's for work, but does anyone know of a source of
american GHT (garden hose thread) fittings in the UK (preferably
online/bristol/glos.)

The threads are 11 1/2 TPI, and the OD of the male thread 1 3/64"
(1.05"). It's similar to 3/4" parallel pipe, except that's 14 TPI.

Thanks

Chris

Hi I also had this problem but by chance I tried and measured the hose fitting
at the top of evergreen garden greener spray and it is American garden hose
size, 3/4 11.5 tpi. So it saved me having to source one from America.

I recently had this issue, having purchased a MiracleGro in-line fertilizer
dispenser from the US, and needing to adapt both ends from US to UK BSP
fittings.

The solution was to order a Gardena quick-fit adapter from the US. It is US
threaded but fully Hozelock compatible. I used the Gardena ends on the
MiracleGro feeder and connected them to Hozelock ends connected to the spigot
and hose. Mated up perfectly, no leaks.

November 18th 2004.

Almost an all time record Brian.

And I thought USA UNF and BSP were sort of compatible ?.
