Apache 98108804 3/4" x 50' Industrial Rubber Water Hose Assembly with Male x Female Garden Hose Thread Fittings

It's your typical 50' of f******t.
The female end of the hose was connected to the faucet at the house, and the male end of the hose was connected to the nozzle. I turned on the water, and as soon as the water filled the hose, I turned off the nozzle, and BOOM the nozzle and the brass fitting were forced to burst off the hose's end. As well as the aluminum (so-called clamp), it fell off the end of the hose. Despite the $65 price tag, you can bet I'd like to return this load of crap and dirt. Having experienced this problem with cheap hoses, I decided to buy this one because it seemed to have good reviews and was "Industrial Grade. " I could fix the problem with a clamp, but I will not be bothered with it.

DEAR OWNER OF A CONDO There is an entrance and a back door on my teeny condo, and I keep my front hose rolled up at the side. To reach one side and the front, it takes 75 feet (the house and garage measure nearly 50 feet, but it doesn't look that way). It is impossible for this 50-foot hose to reach Whenever I finish using the hose, I have to roll it up, and it is virtually impossible to do with this particular This hose twists all over, far more so than any other hose I have ever Thus, most homeowners should be satisfied with two stars at most. I wonder if I could manage if I were to connect three 25' hoses, separate them before winding, and then reassemble them. The hose was given to me because my vinyl hose had cracked and was getting damaged It is virtually impossible to use the 100 feet 3/4" rubber hose, due to its severe kinking. Nonetheless, that hose is still the best household hose to date. I would need two 100' hoses plus a smaller one if I used expandable hoses! The best way to achieve the pressure and volume I need for my pressure washer is likely to use multiple smaller 3/4" hoses. Smaller diameter and expandable hoses do not allow the high pressure and volume required. In the case of a regular non-profit Most people are able to get a kinking 3/4" hose to work in this way, although some will be able to use a 1/2" hose. It is important to note that expandable hoses labelled 3/4" often have a very small Hydraulic hose The couplings are 3/4" in diameter the rest are not. -I have a second 50 ft hose for the back yard - Depending on its length, it is wound on a It would probably be fine (3 stars) as soon as you put the hose on that kind of winder, but I don't have room near my front door for the winder. As a result, I am going to swap out the The following applications are intended for industrial use The hose is great if you can leave it out all the time once it has been The hose winder would be fine if you installed it on a large, industrial type company winder (it would be an expensive one). A heavy all-around load will be effective in any situation Among rubber and brass hoses, rubber and brass hoses will last the longest. This hose looks very similar to hydraulic hoses, but it has a 3/4" inside diameter. There is a lot of weight on this hose. On Amazon, this is the least expensive hose I found of its type. It should be noted that "commercial" hoses are really no different from the better homeowners hoses (as far as I am concerned, most "commercial" hoses are junk, although I have one that is very heavy, but still not as good as this one). I would rate this one 5 stars if it were for industrial use. As far as I could tell, the shipping box was almost completely destroyed upon delivery, and tape had been used to fix it up. Although the hose inside was undamaged, it was unkinked and it was.

Having used hoses for a long time, we know a lot about them. Despite being made from rubber and labeled as 3/4 inch ID, the tube is choked off with 5/8 inch ID connectors at both ends. To see if the appropriate 3/4 inch ID connectors would be sent out so I could splice them on, I called the Apache support number that came with the hose, but some young man just said that it must be a 5/8 hose and Even though there will be some restricted water flow with this hose, most will not even notice it.

When you're done using it, you won't need to go to the gym for a workout. Although this machine is quite heavy and difficult to maneuver, it will surely assist you in your fitness goals. You should not attempt this if you have a weak heart. I will use this hose to wash my car on the concrete driveway because it stands up to being dragged. Although running it over seems ineffective, there is the risk of running it over when it is The ends of these good brass rods come with compression fittings of aluminum and an aluminum wear collar is installed at the bib end. Purchasing the M Mingle 4 pc would be a wise decision. Through Amazon, I found connection female to female on both ends of the hose because it helps it rotate and won't kink at either end. I am purchasing the same hose with a 5/8 diameter and Mingle swivel connectors in order to garden. -Never look back on vinyl hoses in the same way A NEW UPDATE *6/26/2020 - The Beast has passed away from a death caused by Connecting Syndrome - this has caused an abnormal connection at the bib. The rubber hose is of an excellent quality and lasts quite well, however there is no compression at the end. My Amazon request for an R/A had an extended return window after my rationale was explained to the kind person at Amazon. The product was fully refunded by Amazon in 1 day from the shipping confirmation date. It is commendable that Amazon dealt with faulty products in the right way. Apache engineering on compression fittings gets 1 point for its engineering on durability and three points for Amazon on durability of the hose. I hope that you do decide to purchase this item as I did, and if you do, be sure to save the Apache lifetime guarantee printed on the back label when your item arrives as it may be essential to receiving a full refund if your item fails to meet Make sure to stress that this item is described as able to endure pressures of up to 200 pounds per square inch in the list of selling features. 40 psi was the failure pressure for mine.

Apache sells these hoses through Amazon, so I bought two of them there. My fault, I think, was leaving the water on in the winter, so the first went bad. A water leak in the hose occurred because water in the hose froze and pushed the brass connector off. It is my own fault and I am responsible for the cost. I bought a new hose about four months later, which These are the warmest months of the year, April, May, June, and July. I returned to my orders two weeks later and the hose was leaking through no fault of my own. It was too late for me to return the hose due to its leaking. The hoses that this company (Apache) produces are no longer available to me. A bad crimp can be found at the coupling. Almost no crimping is seen on the soft aluminum collar. There is a poor quality to this DVD.

I had to replace the collar on my first hose because it Once the male fitting was in place, I used a clamp to hold it Using an Amazon. com affiliate link, I purchased yet another heavy duty hose from Amazon based on the quality of the first. It took only a few minutes for the 2nd hose to arrive and I was happy The second one I have been using for a few months now.
