If your Hoshizaki ice maker is leaking water, this little rubber Tee connector is a very common culprit. This is a direct replacement for Hoshizaki part numbers 4A0177-01 and 439197-01. It's made from Sanoprene rubber (a high-quality, durable material) that connects the water line to the inlet valve on the machine. It fits a huge list of Hoshizaki KM models, from the KM-280 up to the KM-1601 – the description has the full list, so check your model number. Replacing a cracked or worn-out tee is a relatively simple fix that can stop leaks and get your ice maker running again. The kit includes just the tee fitting. Remember to turn off the water and power to the ice machine before you start. A must-have spare part for any restaurant, bar, or hotel using Hoshizaki machines.
