Product details

The Pentair Kreepy Krauly K12078 is a 45 degree hose connector, molded in plastic and supplied as a single fitting. It is the genuine part, catalogued with Kreepy Krauly cleaner hose accessories.

Why an angled connector

Hose connectors take a beating that nobody notices until the cleaner slows down. Sun makes the plastic brittle, and every time the hose is coiled, dragged over coping or pulled out of the skimmer, the joints take the strain. A cracked connector leaks suction into the water instead of into the cleaner, and the symptom looks like a weak pump rather than a dollar part.

Before you order

This is the 45 degree version. Straight couplings and other angles are separate part numbers, so match the fitting you are replacing before you buy.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What is this part?
It is the Pentair Kreepy Krauly 45 degree hose connector, part number K12078, a molded plastic fitting for cleaner hose.
Is it genuine?
Yes. It is the Pentair Kreepy Krauly part, K12078.
Is this the straight connector?
No. This is the 45 degree angled version. Straight couplings are a different part number.
How do I know a connector has failed?
Look for cracks, splits or a loose fit where hose sections meet. A leaking connector bleeds off suction, so the cleaner crawls or stalls while the pump seems fine.
