It is the fitting that joins the Softube hose to the booster pump plumbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it fits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne end is 3\/4 inch threaded and screws into the pump housing. The other end is barbed and carries a snap lock, so the Softube hose pushes on and locks without a clamp. It is molded plastic, the same as the original fitting, and it is listed under the Polaris PB4-60 and PB4-60Q booster pump parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy they fail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe barb is the piece that takes the strain each time the hose is pulled, coiled or dragged over a coping edge. Once it cracks, the fitting weeps and the cleaner starts running slow or stalling, because pressure that should be reaching it is escaping at the pump. A cracked snap lock does the same thing by letting the hose creep off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuying the four pack means the whole run can be refitted in one go rather than chasing one leak at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polaris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48633771688148,"sku":"P133-4","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_6151dc0c-f6c7-4fc3-9278-79533ecab886.png?v=1788815074","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/softube-quick-connect-4pk","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
