Abstract
A snap-fastenable coupling for a low pressure fluid transfer hose, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprises two semicylindrical pieces mounted on a portion of hose made of rubber or the like that is engaged on an insert. The two pieces are fixed together by resilient snap-fastening and they simultaneously secure the hose to the insert in sealed manner. The pieces have elastically deformable front ends enabling them to snap-fasten resiliently onto a peripheral projection of the endpiece.
