Connecting Hose ORAS 3/8" x M10 short end for faucet, model 601481/2

ORAS connecting hose model 601481/2 with a short end and 3/8" x M10 connections is a flexible plumbing hose designed to link faucets to water supply lines. It provides a sealed mechanical connection between standard 3/8" compression fittings and M10-threaded fittings on taps. The short-end design reduces overall hose length at the tap side, making it suitable for tight installation spaces and compact mixer installations.

Advantages

The hose combines flexibility and a compact short-end fitting to allow close-fitting faucet installations without kinking or undue bending. Constructed for routine domestic and commercial faucet connections, it is compatible with common 3/8" and M10 fittings and provides a secure, water-tight joint when installed correctly. Its design simplifies installation in narrow cabinets or behind sinks where space is limited.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-lever and basin faucets to 3/8" supply valves
• Installations requiring a short-thread connector at the faucet end
• Compact or confined under-sink spaces where a shorter hose end is needed
• Replacement of existing flexible hoses with standard 3/8" and M10 connections

When it may not be suitable

This hose is not intended for use where non-standard thread sizes or bespoke fittings are present; compatibility is limited to standard 3/8" compression and M10 threaded connections. It is not designed for high-pressure industrial applications beyond typical domestic or light commercial water supply pressures. If longer reach or angled fittings are required, a different hose length or adapter may be necessary.

Key specifications

• Connection types: 3/8" compression on supply side and M10 short-thread on faucet side
• Design: short-end flexible connecting hose for faucet installations
• Intended use: potable cold and hot water supply lines to faucets
• Compatibility: standard 3/8" and M10 faucet fittings
• Typical installation environment: under-sink, washbasin, kitchen and bathroom mixers

How to use

Shut off the water supply before connecting the hose. Attach the 3/8" compression end to the water supply valve and tighten to the manufacturer's recommended torque; then connect the M10 short-thread end to the faucet outlet and secure it to produce a sealed joint. Check for correct alignment to avoid twisting the hose and ensure all connections are hand-tightened and then given a slight additional turn with an appropriate tool as required. After installation, open the water supply and inspect all joints for leaks; retighten if necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your faucet uses an M10 threaded connection and that the supply valve accepts a 3/8" compression fitting
• Confirm the required hose length and that a short-end connector meets your installation clearance
• Ensure the hose material and construction are suitable for potable water and the expected operating pressure

Usage recommendations

Use this ORAS 3/8" x M10 short-end connecting hose for standard faucet installations where a compact connection is needed. Periodically inspect fittings for leaks and replace the hose if signs of wear or damage appear.
