We had this problem with our hose and this technique worked after we had tried penetrating oil (Blaster) without success. We had heavy duty brass fittings on the hose but were still able to use this technique. One suggestion - instead of a hack saw, use a Dremel with a cutting disk. Was very quick and did not have any problem with accessing the fitting to make the cut.

A thousand thanks!! I have been routinely buying the expandible hosest that are always on sale at Home Depot, etc. Unfortunately I forgot to remove the hoses from my outdoor spigots over the winter. This happend once before and like your video I had to saw off the hose connector that was essentially molded onto the spigot. Watched your video and it reaffirmed the way I removed the hose metal last time this occurred. Must say these hoses' metal connection pieces are made of poor quality metal. If you buy and live in a climate with cold winters make suree to ALWAYS remove the hose during winter. Otherwise you'll have to follow the video.

There are way easier ways of doing this. One way if to get a dish towel and warp the hose fitting with it. Soak with vinegar and let sit for 10 min. Take of towel and with a stiff bristle dish brush knock off whatever will come off. Grip and try to loosen the fitting. If it does not come off , repeat till it does. It won't take long.

Nice instructions. I'll add this comment in case it helps someone else. First, adding Teflon tape at initial installation is a great idea. I was about to give up and try your fix. This is what I tried. I knew it was likely to be the calcium deposit from Texas hard water. I sprayed it with vinegar water several times, allowing to sit. No luck. It didn't work. I was about to try your fix, and thought what if I sprayed it with WD-40? I didn't think this would work since it doesn't dissolve calcium. But after applying WD-40 and turned it with a pair of channel lock, it moved perhaps a couple of degrees. I tightened and loosened, adding more WD-40, it opened to perhaps 10degrees back and forth. I kept repeating this and finally had it removed. The female thread was coated with white calcium grains. I think the WD-40 was effective in penetrating into the threads giving the calcium grains a little lubrication. By working back and forth, I was able to further break these grains into smaller and smaller grains while adding more lubricant. Maybe I got lucky. But this worked for me. I am cleaning the parts and adding Teflon tape next time.

If you wrap in plastic it will retard the chemical reaction. It needs air to work. " It's nice it works for you, but it won't for everyone" well it does work for everyone. No matter who you are.

There is normally more than one way to solve an issue, but you are insistent that your way is the only way. (Also, vinegar does NOT need air to work, hate to tell you)

I was at a loss and I was afraid I was going to break the faucet if I cranked too hard with a big wrench. so I watched this and grabbed my mini hack saw and screw driver and about 60 seconds later I had it off. So this helped alot.

I had a problem with an old adapter on the spigot that I could not get off and so I used your method, but instead of a hacksaw I used a dremel which took 5 minutes. Easy Peasy.

Just used this on our stuck garden hose outside and it worked! Thank you so much!

Been trying to get mine off all week. Gonna try out the hacksaw in a couple of hours once the sun comes up.

Great job Tom. Unfortunately I’ll have to wait until spring. Too cold out 😂

I only poured hot water on it, used the slip joint pliers to unscrew the hose from the spigot.

Awesome!! I had to cut my hose off at the nozzle last year cause the thing just wouldn’t come off. Headed to the store after work tomorrow for a hacksaw and getting it done. Thanks!

I’m going to use this trick to cut off an inti-siphon valve from the hose bib. It’s spewing water spray everywhere, so I’ll cut it off at an angle as you said cause drilling out the lock screw did nothing. Probably galvanic corrosion as the above comment said. Now I have hope again. Thanks loads !! Good vid,.. sub’d. ;-)
