I have encountered this on many occasion through the years. If you cannot budge them with a pipe wrench use a hacksaw and cut on a diagonal and peel them off. You do not want to ruin the threads on the hose bib, but a slight groove will not hurt as the sealing is done on the hose washer and not on the threads.





You may just want to replace the hose bibs as you can save considerable time and agrivation and you can upgrade the valve with one that takes a half turn to turn on and off.I moved to a new home, old wash. machine hoses left , they're rusted to fixtures and won't budge. help!
Get a penetrant with molybdenum in it, soak it several times. If that doesn't work, you have to cut them with a mini-saw, carefully make a slit on opposite sides of the fitting, then pry slowly. Replace with braided flex lines.
Undo them from machine then buy new ones for new house.
Step aside and let a burly guy give the wrench a try.
Spray them down with WD-40 and let it sit for awhile. Take them off with channel grip pliers.


--Be careful that your not putting to much pressure on the pipes and fittings, you don't want them to break!
I am just presuming that you have tried a pipe wrench already, and not just your hands.





Get some ';Penetrant'; oil at either a Home Depot or a car store like Checkers or Autozone. Squirt it on the threads every 15 minutes. Try the wrench, if it doesn't budge, repeat until it does.





You don't want to try to cut it off because you'd probably damage the threads on the water faucet.
my daughter had this same problem in an unstairs condo. I took a hack saw blade and carefully sawed the old connector in a diagonal fashion until I could take a pair of side cutter and peel it off the fitting.


Then I wd 40d the fitting, then wire brushed it so that the new hose fitting would screw on. It worked very well for me..just go slow and you will make. Good Luck
