Aires - tap connecter (1 Viewer)

[PrettyandFluffy]

Please accept my apologies if this is not the right place to ask, I'm a new member.

We've just returned from our first motorhome trip to France and plan to go again. We were fine with a standard hose connector to get water from taps on campsites etc but twice came across (new) automatic facilities where you paid at the machine first. These had a different tap fitting that we couldn't connect to. We tried asking at a caravan & camping shop without success.

Does anyone know what these attachments are and where you can get them from?
Thanks for any help.

They are the male/ male thingy that you use to connect two hoses together if they have female hoselock type fittings on each end.

A very simplified version with no moving parts to break and leak.

3 1/2 quid from screw fix... Available elsewhere.

Works fine ... just remember to fix to your hose first or get soaked through!
