Where to get pipe connector set? (uk)

I'm looking for the nut and sealing ring to go with this

Both amazon and ebay seem only to sell the male connector. Maybe I need to rephrase the search?.

on the left is a 1/2 inch thread ...jus about everything can attach to this

the other right end is a 13mm/12.4mm insert for the average garden hose

common as muck!

IMO: if this for a sump/rez? drill a 12mm hole and screw this in with hose attached

maybe... sand the face then apply glue? ...maybe

good luck

^^ use a silicon as glue.

Yes for res connections, but would rather have a solid seal connection with nut and ring. The stop tap connectors come with the fittings I want but they are more expensive and the tap is not required for purpose. They can also be a source of leak under pressure or orientation, you dunno the quality until you use it so not risking it. Was hoping a full set is available with connector -tap ;[.

I used something similar on my first hydro RDWC setup. They worked...until the buckets cracked at the flanges and then leaked. Not pleasant. Changed over to a hydro-seal type grommet and a simple barb connector-no more leaks after two years.
