Potable Water Quick Connects

[EJW]

Good morning, anyone have any recommendations for using brass quick connects on my hose fittings? Notice very few of these water related fittings made in the USA any longer.
Anyone have any success or failure feedback? Much appreciated!

I use these, so far they have been flawless. Expensive, but worth the money.

I have used these for many years both on my rig and all the hoses and accessories at home. No problems encountered.

When I originally ordered them from Amazon they were only $12. but now the price is much higher. Bummer.

I have used both of those in different situations and both models are good.

I've been using the ones Jim D posted without issues for about 5 seasons. This year they are giving me problems connecting and staying connected. Up to now I haven't even had to replace a washer...

i picked up Harper Freights brass version when i bought my trailer and they are still working great.. i also have a set for my black hose. I painted those black to avowing mixing up.. I have some heavy plastic versions at home, they work just as well.

I've used them for a few years without any problems. They save so much time when moving from one campground to the next.

X2 on thesehttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1. I even use them on my hose to clean out the black tank.

I use em too. Look out for the ones that look like brass but are aluminum. Brass is much heavier and the AU don’t seem as durable. I keep new spares in my fresh water tote, when one starts leaking or becomes stubborn to connect/disconnect I clean it, if that doesn’t help pitch it and get another. Felt wasteful but after a couple diesel fill-ups at $100 I got over it.
