Only with IBCs equipped with a female S60x6 DIN outlet. Verify the outlet size before purchasing.

How do i attach the hose?

Push the hose fully onto the hose tail and secure it using a hose clamp for a leak-tight seal.

Can it be used with pumps?

Yes - it works with pump suction or discharge hoses when properly secured.

What liquids can it handle?

Suitable for water and many industrial liquids. Always check chemical compatibility with the connector material.

Is it suitable for pressure systems?

Typically designed for gravity or pump-assisted transfer rather than high-pressure systems. Check ratings before use.

Snaplock Straight Hose Connector

(S60x6) Fem DIN x 1 1/2" (40mm) and 2'' (51 mm) Hosetail in Polypropylene

The Snaplock Straight Hose Connector is a robust and reliable adaptor designed to connect an Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) outlet directly to a hose line.

It converts a standard S60x6 female DIN IBC outlet into a secure hose tail connection, allowing fast and efficient liquid transfer without complicated fittings.

Built for industrial, agricultural, and commercial fluid handling, this connector makes draining, filling, and transferring liquids from IBC tanks simple, safe, and leak-resistant.

What it does

This connector adapts an IBC's female S60x6 DIN outlet thread into a straight hose connection using a ribbed hose tail.

Once fitted, you can attach a flexible hose and secure it with a hose clamp, creating a strong, sealed connection for transferring liquids from a tank.

In short, it lets you move liquids from your IBC tank into hoses, pumps, or distribution systems quickly and reliably.
