ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a water conduit connector for an animal water supply system. The connector has a body which receives adjacent ends of water conduit sections. Inserts are positioned into the connector body and define pockets for positioning sealing o-rings. The inserts, o-rings, and connector body receive the conduit section ends, with the o-ring being compressed to form a sealing contact with the outer surface of the water conduit. The insert includes a ridge which engages an internal groove of the connector body to securely fasten the insert within the connector body. Tapered portions of the insert and connector body facilitate the entry of the insert into the connector body. The connector facilitates manufacture because no sonic welding is needed to complete the connector body and form the pockets in the connector body which house the o-rings.
