American Maytag top loader

[Jasonwhitegoods]

Hi, hoping someone can help.. I need two fill hose adapters for a Maytag top loader washing machine. The fill hose thread is different to uk size.
something like this: https://www.4maytag.co.uk/c55-usa-hose-adapter/product.pl?pid=533574&query=USA+hose+adapter which is obsolete! Anyone perhaps got a couple they would be willing to sell?
thank you

Hi Dave, I have the hoses (original American) but the thread on the hose won’t screw onto the tap (uk) the adapter in the link I shared is exactly what I need as the originals have been lost in a house move.
thank you

find a decent old world plumbers merchant. take the hose with you and tell time you want to connect the hose to a 3/4 washing machine tap. forget the toolstation and screwfix types they wont have product knowledge

problem for me finding one is i dont know what thread they use in tht USA
