Used on: UK indoor taps, washing-machine valves, many mixer-tap tails.

Common indoor UK tap thread. A G1/2 to G3/4 step adapter is the usual way onto a hose fitting.

Quick-connect click fittings from Hozelock, Gardena and Karcher are proprietary and do not interchange. They all sit on top of a standard thread underneath, so the reliable way to move between brands is to adapt at the threaded tap or hose-end fitting, then use each brand's own connector above it.
