Default Hydrosteel Hose

The ad on facebook was perfect timing as I was dragging the hose out to wash all the ash from the car from the canada fires several times. For a couple of seasons I have used the flexzilla hose. It is flexible and has lasted a couple of seasons without any cracking, BUT it does kink at times. After seeing the ad for the Hydrosteel unit and watching a couple of facebook reviews it became I have to have it item. Just got finished putting it on my el cheapo hose reel. It is nice and light and kink proof even with no water pressure in it. The 2 25' sections take only about half the reel up. Long term reliability remains to be seen BUT Ray testing has a way of finding out how well or not things work

Worked out great. I see some of my neighbors noticed Ray testing also Again the Rescue fly trap and modified Horsefly traps are around also. They all let me take one for the team.

Hey Ray, what are the fittings on the ends made out of? Seems like brass has become a thing of the past. Bought a hose at HD that said brass fittings and the color looked a little different and when screwed to an aluminum nozzle corroded so bad they were seized together after 1 year. It’s also hard to find a brass nozzle.

The fittings are made of aluminum but even in the saline atmosphere here they seem fine. I get all my nozzles of E Bay. Tons of brass units there.

Thanks Ray, I have resorted to finding brass nozzles at garage sales but Ebay would work too.
