No harm in asking right?
I bought this fire nozzle off ebay mainly because we don't have anything like it here. What I want to know is how does it fit to the hose?..there's got to be another piece right?..

Re: No harm in asking right?
The top looks to be female threaded end. Do your hoses down under not have the male threaded end connectors?

No 99% are like the picture below. I liked the idea of a mini fire nozzle..so the connector you have is the most common over there?

Re: No harm in asking right?
I think most hose ends in the US are the threaded male end connectors like the top picture in the link I posted. They are usually crimped on when you get a new hose, but once they break/leak you can cut off the end and replace with the pictured one. Then you would need a hose clamp on the hose. Then it will probably still leak. 
Obviously one end is male and the other is female....
Here's links to Lowe's (a hardware chain here): http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=34767-104-A680/PBGH10

Re: No harm in asking right?
If you're looking for a quick clip, then yes, you'll need more connectors to make that happen. As for just a standard old "fire nozzle" that attaches to a hose, that's what you previously pictured.tizeye wrote:No 99% are like the picture below.

I can't speak for there being an IHT (International Hose Thread ), but I do know there's an IPT (International Pipe Thread )> I would suspect that hoses are similarly threaded around the world.

I went to the local hardware chain and showed them..they couldn't help but they did suggest trying an industrial hose manufacturer...
